Pros

Decent co-workers, 50% discount on products

Cons

Bullies in upper-management, zero training yet unreasonably high expectations for secret shops that involve a 30-point list of "rituals" and other ridiculous things you must provide *every guest* with when the majority of shoppers just want their shampoo and to be left alone. Minimum wage for an exhausting and unrewarding job.

Pros

I got discount prices (really high not allowed to say) on Aveda products, and had great coworkers.

Cons

Slow and boring; also zero flexibility for time off. Like I couldn't go home for the holidays.
