Pros

Very chic environment, mess free job but physically demanding. You get commission (commission is 1-2% after you make a certain minimum sales amount/ hour). You usually get commissions on holidays (Christmas, Chinese new year, ...) because costumers buy more.

Cons

The amount you need to sell in order to qualify for commission is usually impossible. Meeting your hourly sales goals are hard. I worked in one of the busiest locations and it was still challenging to meet the sales goals. Do not count on commission because returns are considered minus your sales. Very stingy company overall. There is a vibe/ pressure that you need to buy the products too.

Pros

The management team is refined and very accommodating. I loved my time here. I had so many opportunities to learn and grow through my experiences, and working with the team was amazing. Holiday seasons were stressful but never unfun. The management here really makes you feel cared for. Love the discount on most jewelry as well.

Cons

Scheduling could be volatile during holiday seasons, but that's to be expected for a front-line sales position.

Pros

Strong level of autonomy as a Store Manager to drive the business, implement strategies, and influence sales performance Opportunity to develop leadership skills through team coaching, training, and performance management Emphasis on client experience and building meaningful in-store customer relationships Creative freedom to execute sales-driving initiatives and local events Hands-on ownership of business results, which can be very rewarding for self-motivated leaders

Cons

Limited support from regional and district leadership, particularly in satellite locations, which can feel isolating High turnover due to relatively low pay for Crystal Experts and Assistant Managers Budget constraints make it difficult to recruit and retain experienced, high-performing talent Teams may require significant development due to lower wage tiers, increasing workload and pressure on management Store conditions in some locations feel outdated, with limited investment in remodels or upgrades Compensation structure for hourly roles does not always align with expectations or workload
