Pros

Great discount on products and the free spa voucher is a nice gift for employees.

Cons

Constant pressure of being watched by management and being made to approach customers who clearly don’t want to engage in conversation (which is their right). Every shift started with a focus which often involved some sort of points scoring game which felt childish and immature. You could’ve made a massive sale that day and genuinely worked hard, but if you didn’t have any points on the board for the game you would be viewed as not making an effort.
