Pros

#1 reason - wow, the amount of free product... You seriously don't need to buy most of the stuff you used to! + part of LVMH + great processes and programs + training/education + good support from "home office" + great brands and product + its like any other retail, but the environment makes it VERY special + terrific bonus potential - so many different bonus opportunities

Cons

- the amount of feedback and self discovery that is required - the sales associates run the store because they are given so much "freedom" to express themselves - despite being a "values based company" promotions are truly given based on politics (the same as everywhere else?) - SO MANY DIFFERENT INITIATIVES!!! just because it works well doesn't mean it HAS to be re-done!

Pros

+ monthly training gratis + brand and product training + exposure to working with luxury brands + technology device supplements role

Cons

- unstable hours / unstable income - part-time employee classification has a wide weekly hourly gap (e.g., 15-29 weekly hours) and the availability expectation is that of a full-time (e.g., required to be open 4-5 a week, open to close) - minimal career growth if wanting to become full-time within the same store
