Pros

Awesome Managers, they treated employees equally, the harder you worked the more hours you recieved. You were never punished for missing work, the manager created professional relationships with her employees. The company rewards stores with good performance with parties, which, tho childish, feels great to be acknowlegded by the company. This is so rare at most companies. I was given the oppurtunity for advancement within the first year.

Cons

The pay could have been alittle higher.

Pros

-30% discount at Bath & Body works and any other Limited Brands Store (like Victoria's Secret!) -we get free stuff often, like at meetings -I generally love the store products and smelling great and having a great smelling home -MOS, you get to fill a large bag of products and only pay 5 bucks for it half full, 10 bucks for it full. you could get over 100 bucks of stuff for 10

Cons

-not enough hours. I understand that working here as a Sales Associate is a part time job, but often people only get two 3 1/2 hour shifts per week or less. Pay is a few cents above min. wage -"calls ins" - you are put on the schedule for a "call in" in which you call the store two hours ahead to see if they need you to come in, when often they don't. it's annoying. i've always been called in even when I wasn't scheduled for one, i dont mind though because I need the money. -employee gossip. -sales associates are pushed to have customers try products and buy more. most of the time customers just want to go in & shop, not have to be followed around by an associate. asking if the customer needs help is another story, but when you're pressuring them to buy stuff it's annoying, for us and them. I'm currently looking for a new job, I don't want to quit here because I really LOVE the store products, discounts, free items, etc, so I'll probably just keep it as a second job and work 1-2 shifts a week..which is what they give me...and a ton of bullsh*t call ins.
