Pros

Though over worked and underpaid, most employees (other than upper management) are great people to work with.

Cons

Horrible work/life balance. Most everyone is over worked and under paid. This creates an unhealthy and toxic work environment. Due to the volume of work it makes it very difficult for otherwise successful people to excel at their jobs. Everyone is covering their own and throwing others under the bus in order to preserve their position. Recognition is sparse and ineffective especially when not backed up by an increase in pay.

Pros

* If you have an amazing team and management the day goes by fast. * Commission. * Easy to rely on foot traffic to meet goals. * If you ask for growth, they set thing ups that align with what you want, you just need to ask.

Cons

* If its slow, its SLOW. * There can be drama, it just depends on the department you're in.

Pros

Employee discount and free samples

Cons

A toxic environment where sales are almost zero because vendors are pulling their product off the shelf because their bills aren’t getting paid. They’re in the middle of coming out of a bankruptcy , if a client does come in, we usually don’t have the product to sell them ,only lines who are partially thriving is fragrance ! The hours are terrible. You get off work at nine and you’re expected to be back at 9:30 AM.
