Pros

Absolutely nothing, maybe the customers. They were the best part.

Cons

The people are rude and impatient with new hires, they take advantage of new hires by making them do all the horrible night work, and they send you home during the day if there are “too many people.” They don’t ask or give you an option. They literally just hire people to use and take advantage of them so they can do the worst stuff, and they don’t tell you when the hire you.

Pros

Great brand to work for! Corporate leaders are great at motivating team down to associate level. (Not sure about Daniel yet though, I’m mostly referring to the tentured leadership team) There’s access to tools that offer clear communication (almost too much communication sometimes). Development is the core of this brand and managers are trained to foster internal talent when it’s identified. The product sold here is cherished by a huge fanbase as well- customers feed off of the excitement the associates have around the product.

Cons

Operationally demanding and challenging; don’t underestimate how much labor and planning goes into selling candles and lotion.
