Pros

Fun environment to work in. Good product you will sell easily because you and the customers believe in the product. The employee discount is good.

Cons

A huge amount of tasking (shipment, floor sets, trainings) with no payroll to cover any of it. The company expects you to interact with every customer but also continually gives you more busy work to take you away from the customer. There is also no communication between the different corporate branches or with corporate to the stores. Changes to operations will be thrown out last minute, usually with errors.
