Pros

Bagels on Friday’s Opportunities to move up in company You get to work with awesome expensive clothing

Cons

- Catty management - High turnover rate - the low amount of money isn’t worth the amount of times I had to go to the chiropractor due to constantly lifting heavy mannequins for 10 hours a day - The management is super cliquey and pick favorites. If you’re their best friend you will get promoted and treated with respect, but if not, you will have a much different experience working at this company.

Pros

Pay and commission can be good, but the structure is unnecessarily convoluted and not as generous as it seems, and you will have no work/life balance if you want to actually make consistently high commission. If you have a true passion for luxury and fashion, you do get a lot of opportunities to handle and interact with special/rare items, and depending on store location you can meet a lot of interesting industry people and celebrities, especially during Fashion Weeks

Cons

Poor and unsupportive management with extremely unrealistic demands and expectations; you will get virtually no training, but are immediately expected to know how to do everything. The overall company culture is just unpleasant and very cliquey, and there's constant employee turnover. The online customer service system is terrible, so you will frequently have to handle customer issues that have nothing to do with you/your sales.
