Pros

- Awesome training...they really made sure you know the product and how to sell it. - Management really cared about the associates. - A very positive environment to work. - Communication between associates and management was easy, they made you feel like you could really tell them about any concerns you had. - Great products! - Hours were based on performance and if you did your job then you got the hours. This made the distribution of the hours very fair.

Cons

- Not enough hours. I could not be guaranteed even 10 hours a week. - Pay could have been a little higher but I understand because of the HUGE amount of people on staff. - Too many sales associates! - Discount could have been better. Usually using the coupons was better than my employee discount. So basically we received the same discount as the customers, which is great for the customers but not so great for the employees.

Pros

Great brand to work for! Corporate leaders are great at motivating team down to associate level. (Not sure about Daniel yet though, I’m mostly referring to the tentured leadership team) There’s access to tools that offer clear communication (almost too much communication sometimes). Development is the core of this brand and managers are trained to foster internal talent when it’s identified. The product sold here is cherished by a huge fanbase as well- customers feed off of the excitement the associates have around the product.

Cons

Operationally demanding and challenging; don’t underestimate how much labor and planning goes into selling candles and lotion.
