Pros

Cool concept, but poorly executed. Make decent money if you work 7 days a week, 355-360ish days a year.

Cons

Upper management has no idea what is going on in the field. Does not care about people and talent. No work/ life balance. Working weekends and most holidays (I got scheduled on Christmas Day). A lot of work with little reward. Company has changed for the worse. They took all of Yelp's employees and are trying to mimic that business model, it's messy and makes no sense - very different companies.

When you don't reach your goal, they do get on you/

Pros

Pay and commission can be good, but the structure is unnecessarily convoluted and not as generous as it seems, and you will have no work/life balance if you want to actually make consistently high commission. If you have a true passion for luxury and fashion, you do get a lot of opportunities to handle and interact with special/rare items, and depending on store location you can meet a lot of interesting industry people and celebrities, especially during Fashion Weeks

Cons

Poor and unsupportive management with extremely unrealistic demands and expectations; you will get virtually no training, but are immediately expected to know how to do everything. The overall company culture is just unpleasant and very cliquey, and there's constant employee turnover. The online customer service system is terrible, so you will frequently have to handle customer issues that have nothing to do with you/your sales.
