Pros

- Great training program for consultants, you really learn a lot by attending regular brand training sessions. - Management are generally supportive and good listeners if one-on-one meetings are requested to address employee issues - Great full-time benefits, including matching 401K

Cons

- Too much after hours store cleaning. Some of the cleaning work seems too laborious and detailed for a regular retail employee to handle and should be done by professional cleaning crews - Break rooms are also maintained by store consultants so it is often not tidy, nor is it ever a pleasant place to eat in.

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
