Pros

50% discount good bonus's if you hit your monthly target. christmas time you can earn up to 20% more on top of wage. Flexible with staff hours well my shop was. Friendly lots of freebies

Cons

Product knowledge!! soooooo much stuff to learn, can be quite daunting when you first start. Also Lush are massive on mystery shoppers, i think you have one a month. easy to tell who they are though when they start asking what makes the bath bombs fizz and where we source ingredients from. Hard work!! mentally tiring always have to be upbeat with customers. Not enough pay for the amount of knowledge you have to remember. expected to demo all the time and push for add on sales. they encourage you to pounce on customers, can be quite off putting. Cleaning! I think I cleaned more in the shop than I did my own home.

Pros

Discounts, we got 50% off of most items

Cons

Unhygienic, stressful, money hungry, fear monger. Unprofessional managers both as an employee and customer. Never experienced such low life conditions, manager brought in animal multiple times in store, and made staff clean its pee. Customers were floored, inexcusable and HR is unresponsive. The bathroom is disgusting, and inaccessible. I cannot imagine any one with a physical disability being able to use the restroom. It was so difficult to suck in your stomach, then trip on box after box. They BLOCK the fridge and made us put our food in our tiny lockers. Manager is too comfortable with the amount of time spent within the company to ever fear facing any consequences or repercussions. Even fired staff in the past for contacting HR for help.
