      Pros

      The discount is lovely Usually the people can be cool Get to dress alt

      Cons

      Super pushy sales tactics Forced to push sales on actual hot garbage landfill slop Super encouraged to up sales even though there is literally no reward for it. No commission or bonus or anything Was pressured to buy from them to boost sales????? TF????? Not enough hours to go around

      Pros

      Coworkers and culture were definitely the pros of the job.

      Cons

      Mall setting and corporate policies made things unenjoyable. If this place could be franchised and not in a mall with so many other types of people would be much more ideal.
