Pros

International brand name Discounts on products

Cons

The overall atmosphere in the company is a bit demotivating. The staff turnover is high people rarely stay long (except of management) because of unclear expectations, and a general lack of support. The culture is toxic, with constant pressure, understaffing, and unrealistic demands that lead to stress and burnout. Responsibilities are not clearly defined, Salaries are below market level, and benefits are limited compared to other companies, The company talks a lot about values, but in daily reality, these principles are mostly used for branding rather than genuinely guiding behavior.

Pros

Easy scheduling, often works with vacations and time off requests to the best of ability including extended emergency time off, held jobs and re-hired as business allowed. Opportunities for monthly bonuses and commission on certain product; store manager does push for sales targets but also encourages and incentivizes wins and celebrations. Often brings snacks and drinks for the team. Contributed to a lot of the sales herself and always champions the wins for the store. Has won a few Pandora contests since I’ve worked there and taken the team out for events and fun activities to bond with, fill the fridge etc. Store manager is quirky but can tell enjoys the job. Would work here again.

Cons

Less room for advancement since it’s a franchise but always cross-training for future benefit

Pros

•Discounted Jewelry •That’s about it.

Cons

• Catastrophically high turnover rate (saw 4 different managers within a year) • Regional manager quit within a year as well •Will “write you up” for the smallest issues; “you were one minute late” • Condescending management • Manager cut hours after employees gave honest, kind constructive criticism that was supposed to be anonymous • Manager would unnecessarily search people. • Manager would change “rules” then write people up before giving anyone a chance to explain.
