Vantaggi
- It was fun getting to work (and play) with products. - Good job for a college student getting on their feet - Discount & free samples - Generally busy environment (especially during holiday season), few slow boring "down time" periods.
Svantaggi
- No training for seasonal employees, and to my knowledge for regular sales associates (at the store I was working in, at least). While it is understandable that significant time cannot be put in training seasonal employees, an overview would have been helpful. Needed to learn as I went, which required more questions and interruptions to my superiors while on the floor, which would have been unnecessary with minimal training. - No clarity as to when the position would end. One week I just was not scheduled and that was it.
