July - August 2018 • Santa Monica, CA

What I liked

I loved the work atmosphere. All the women that worked there were upbeat and encouraging. I also enjoyed the learning atmosphere they created. At the end of each shift, I would sit down with my manager and go over what went well, what I needed to work on, and how I would do better. I also truly believed in the products that we sold and that made the job a lot easier and more authentic.

What I wish was different

Better hours, better communication, managers played favorites when it came to situations. Wish they would have given loyal employees more summer hours instead of hiring cheap 12 week workers.

Advice

It’s a minimum wage job, so don’t plan on it going above and beyond when it comes to asking for more hours and time off.
