Pros

Good commission and lovely people to work with

Cons

No work life balance, very poor management who showed favouritism and based progression on who they liked that day and not on performance. You are expected to hound customers as soon as they walk through the door and unless you eat sleep and breath bras you will always be doing something wrong. Nothing will ever be good enough for management and they will take any opportunity to bring you down. A cult of an organisation.

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.
