Pros

Working at lululemon athletica was impressive. The training didn't include anything about selling until the third and fourth day of training. The first two days were all about developing yourself and your interests. Working there allows you to be fun, energetic, and build relationships with your peers and guests that come in the store. There are many perks to working at lululemon that I probably won't speak about due to privacy I'm assuming, but it is worth it.

Cons

Recently, they implemented a way of management that ultimately led me to leaving. It is fairly new so I'm sure it will be resolved - they are constantly pushing you to bother guests and ask them if they need help (like the first 5 people who asked them was not enough). They can be a little excessive in how active they are in the community. It is great if people are into it, but if other educators (sales associates) aren't into it, that does not mean they do not belong there. Besides that, and slight favouritism, the company is great! FYI: The cons I have provided are just based on my own interests. Others will say that there are no cons and they would be right as well. The company was still great, that is the reason for the 5 stars.

Pros

The benefits with the sweaty Pursuits is good and the insurance is good too! You get a team that you get to put together and get to know them and see what works for you guys to be successful in a processing shift!

Cons

The nights are long and very overworked. They ask a lot from you and usually they put the business before you. It’s always we need this and that from the managers but not actually taking time to help or to actually see that we are trying our best and if they actually worked a shift with us and saw the struggles they would understand more. They think it’s easy, when the weight of the store depends on us. You are also qualified as a Guest Experience lead since you have to do both trainings so the management do over utilise that and you will be doing two jobs. Even though it says in the description to support the floor but there’s a difference between supporting from time to time and doing it all the time where you are running the floor and the back at the same time but they’ll say “oh why isn’t this done?” Maybe because you’ve told me to help you out ? The are also very selective about who moves up to be a manager. No work life balance at all!
