Pros

40% discount at BBW and VS!! Met great people that I will be friends with outside the company.

Cons

Call in shifts for sales associates, micromanaging from DM and higher. Cameras that only DMs have access too. Commission like sales environment without the payout of commission. Zero work/life balance

Pros

Incentives, gratis, team work mentality, fun product to work with, always something new coming out every month so customers never get bored

Cons

I couldn't wait to be able to leave this company. Never was my quality of life so poor as when I worked here. I worked in management and their compensation was weak for what the job entailed. This company caters great to its customers but works their employees to the bone. Retail is usually a challenging business but with this company nothing was ever good enough and there was never enough recognition for the employees. It always seemed like they just kept pushing for more. Late night floor sets run into the early morning hours till everyone is exhausted and barely able to function. Then some employees are expected to work the day after floor set off of what little sleep you were able to get. They want you to strive for unreachable numbers and set unrealistic expectations.

Pros

Great product, friendly peers, cute store

Cons

Everything - dm is super critical - goals are unrealistic - cameras now that your dm can peek inside store. Suppose to be used for "standards" but that hasn't happened once.
