Pros

Long list sorry but y’all need to know - Relaxed atmosphere - Luxe jewelry that is nice to look at, try on and easy to sell to customers - FREE jewelry accommodation every quarter ($100 limit for PT employees, you choose from a list and pick one item under $100) - Corporate gave team beautiful crystal ornament during holiday season - Commission if store makes monthly budget, it requires teamwork and the register allows a transaction to be split between 3 employees - Vacation & Sick paid hours, they accumulate as you work albeit slowly - 50% EMPLOYEE DISCOUNT and Afterpay in-store! I had to become frugal I went a lil crazy ngl but you do have a yearly limit if I’m not mistaken - Sales goals for the store and yourself are relatively easy to achieve, obviously there are slow days but some days people spend hundreds if not thousands $$$ - Enjoyable time with co-workers and managers as the team is small if you’re in a boutique location - My store had private office/restroom so you’re not sharing it with customers nor dozens of employees for your break. It’s random to mention but ewwww I disliked previous retail jobs where customers blew UP the restroom… toilets clogged up toilet paper on the floor p00p stains omggggggggg no offense but it’s true!!

Cons

- Returns go against you, kinda demoralizing if you’ve sold well during your shift and then Mrs. Lady comes in with $1000 return bringing your sales down to the -negative. - Full time only available to ASM & SM - Sometimes inconsistent PT schedule - Raise was low sadly, a few pennies increase similar to lower end jobs I’ve worked for years ago

Pros

great introduction into luxury retail, great sales training, coworkers are very friendly, management really cares about you and is very nice but can get rude when stressed. generally a nice place to work, clean, very easy job overall, you make team bonuses which raise hourly to as much as 22 and hour

Cons

micromanaging from corporate, disorganized management, moderate turnover, things get stressful but also fun during busy seasons
