    Pros

    None, none, none and none

    Cons

    I would think twice about trusting this company with your personal needs. The new manager treats employees terribly. For minimum wage they get texted at home and are required to discuss the business on their own time. It's a sweat shop and employees are not allowed breaks as outlined by Oregon labor laws. (Not even unpaid breaks because they are grossly understaffed) This guy beats his employees to the ground. He also takes credit for their sales which is their only chance at making more than minimum wage. They are harassed to sell, sell, sell and push, push, push and then he will fire people without warning and then blame the employee by lying. Who wants to support a company who does this? It is 2016.

    Pros

    I love the come rottery that you develop with the girls you work with in the center. The wax is amazing and they're products do what they say they'll do.

    Cons

    You never know when you're entitled to a raise and they will definitely not tell you. When you have an interview they tell you that you are guaranteed to have a raise every 6 months that is not happening. Even if your fully booked and selling products. They took our incentives for selling and the GSA's could not get a raise because the wax passes were taken aswell. The GM makes the rules not corporate.
