Pros

They produce and distribute interesting products.

Cons

HQ does not care about treating the staff with respect. Top management cares about growth and their public image but not about the brain coaches. My brain coaches cared more about the company then the company cared about the coaches.

Pros

I loved my coworkers and my manager, it was a lot of fun playing games with all the customers and my coworkers. Of course, I learned a lot about being a salesperson and about interacting with people.

Cons

I was very disheartened at how poorly employees are treated by corporate. My manager expressed the same feelings and felt unfulfilled. They asked for very much, which often led to high stress situations trying to sell as much as possible at the end of the month, and yet even with all the demands, all the visits from management, the BrainCoaches are never rewarded, and not even offered higher positions if they earn them. They told me when I started that sales weren't to be as pushy as other retail stores, yet we were essentially demanded to perform the same tired retail tactics when the store did not meet their unrealistic goals. For a company that says they are taking a new approach, they are using tactics that people already know and recognize. Management also does not take into account the area you are selling to. We often got products that sold well in other places, but did not sell well in our store. We had an enormous backstock of those items that never went away.

Co-workers are nice and the stores are welcoming.

Management uses employees and treat them terribly. They see one small mistake be done and fire you.
