Pros

NOTHING! Not even the discount was worth it to me.

Cons

I hate retail because of Victoria's Secret. It was misery working here. The staff was rude, the management ruder, and the customers... oh dear... I honestly almost feel sympathetic for the customers. Being forced to HOUND them as soon as they walk through the darn door with talk about angel cards, promos, and following them around asking for the umpteenth time if they need help (they don't... trust me.) Long hours on your feet being talked down to by management and customers... and long hours folding panties/placing bras back on display for the HUNDREDTH TIME THAT DAY... oh my GOD. The breaks were too short, in my opinion, also. And the pay even worse.

Pros

Have met some amazing coworkers. Brand itself is fun.

Cons

Sudden Return to Work mandate 3 days in NY or OH SIX years after COVID. Any current employees outside of those states are being let go if they don’t uproot their lives and relocate. Many employees in those states built their lives around what seemed to be a permanent remote flexibility arrangement (most companies went back in 23). When Hillary Super came on she even stated in one of her first Q&A’s on remote work that where people do their jobs wasn’t a big concern for her as long as we continued to drive the business forward. The business is doing the best it ever has in the last five years. Leadership reasoning for mandate is continuing to fall flat. Mandate came absolutely out of NOWHERE.
