Fun place

Indeed Featured review

The most useful review selected by Indeed
Not a bad place to work, they don't give you enough hours. Would have been better if they would of cross trained. I basically store at the entrance of the door and didnt move around.

Fun place to work and grow

Great company culture, good training and people care about each other. The store managers make the job fun and are consistent about treating all associates really well.

No toman en cuenta a todo el personal

El trabajo es agradable, pero no te toman en cuenta, puedes ir solo una vez a la semana por 3 horas. Tienen mucho personal para las pocas horas que colocan, no vale la pena y solo quieren q vayas sábado o domingo

Cons

No hay horas

Very pushy for sales

Big on sales. No sales equals no hours. Sometimes they keep track of your sales and sometimes they take that away. Not an easy chill job. You have to get sales

I loved it.

It was a great part time job for me. I stayed for many years and made a lot of friends. Lots of free things to received as well. Floor sets on Sunday nights weren’t as convenient while I had a seperate full time job.

Hardly any hours

The management and associates in the store are very nice and supportive, but I am a seasonal worker and honestly … if i knew they would only be giving me a 4 hour shift a week (often less) I wouldn’t have taken the position. It’s very difficult to successfully train when your only there for short shifts.

Pros

Good company, good discount

Cons

hours

Terrible work place

Unless you are very attractive you weren't given any hours to work. In the very short time I worked there I was scheduled to literally work for 1 hour.

Ive worked here for 26yrs and wont work for any other company !

What is the best part of working at the company?They are a smart business and very successful! Retail is a scary business to be in right know so I like a company that changes all the time to stay relevant!What is the most stressful part about working at the company?We get very busy! Because we do change all the time customers don’t understand that it may only be here for a short time!What is the work environment and culture like at the company?In our store very good! We’ve had the same management for many years!What is a typical day like for you at the company?Busy with customers, and maintaining visual standards. Also, all other operations like hiring, and coaching.

Stress and uncomfortable

You will go nowhere working there. Once your hired or rehab in to a certain position, that is where you will stay. No one ever wanted to train me anywhere else. They gave new opportunities to new associates or ranking existing associates except me.

Laid back but boring

Wasn’t a very high volume store so it seemed as if time moved very slow. I was a seasonal associate. I worked for the discount and extra Christmas money. Great manager and good team.

Great place of work but depends on Management

I’ve worked for Bath and Body works for a while in two different locations. Overall, the place is a great place to work, awesome benefits, and easy to do. However, I will say that it depends of your management team which can be a hit or miss. I’ve been lucky to have a good ones until my last job with them. There was one manager that was just acted like it’s their way or the high way which lead me to look for other employment.

productive and fun workplace

overall a great place to work if you have the right team in place. have to be 100% flexible when in manager role and willing to have open availability. also, dont expect to have much work life balance during holiday season.

Absolutely the best smelling job I have ever had...hehehe...and it was always fun!!!

There was never a dull moment in a Bath & Body Works store. The atmosphere is always bright and cheerful, clean and organized, and the most fun shopping experiences are had in a Bath & Body Works store. My senior store management was always there to support and coach me, we worked in a team environment to keep the store well maintained and fully stocked, and Bath & Body Works is committed to an inclusive and thriving workplace in every building and store in the company.

Pros

Great company perks and the best product knowledge training in retail!!

Cons

It can take a while to get promoted if you want to move up in the company.

fine

very standard retail experience, heavy focus on making sales but the pay wasn't bad for a first job. experience will probably depend on the management.

Everyone's nice, love it here, very little hours though..

It's an amazing job if you love the products. Since I am in a border city being bilingual is a huge need, since my Spanish isn't great I have problems. Very little hours, I'm lucky if I get 9-10 a week..

Spinning Candles

Very easy job, almost too easy. I was extremely bored for almost all of my shifts. Spent most of my time spinning candles and reorganizing as most customers don't need any help shopping.

Great

Amazing place to work. It’s a fast growing company continually opening stores. There is lots of opportunity to grow and move up. They value their employees time and work life balance is a big part of the business.
