Enjoyable work space

Sales Representative (Former Employee) - SFO Airport - December 2, 2015

Each day was different working here at the Body Shop. The Body Shop is an excellent company with original ideas, products, and sales techniques. The management team was super outgoing and friendly and always pushed for our team to do better. The most difficult thing about working at the Body Shop was not buying everything that was released, the employee discount is great and the products are wonderful. I really enjoyed the customers that came into the Body Shop, it made my job very fun and exciting.

Pros

Employee discount, outgoing staff, and very clean stores

Cons

Hours are competitive, selling company cards was a must

Encourages work life balance

APAC Franchise Commercial Analyst (Current Employee) - Orchard - December 23, 2014

The role has provided great insight at how marketing strategies strive to achieve sales through monthly product launches that constantly brings newness to the brand. In depth analysis also provided visibility of correlation and cannibalization of sales. The hardest part is identifying the root cause behind a negative trend while the most enjoyable part is seeing great improvement in sales and sales growth.

Pros

Work Life Balance

Demonstrating beauty products in customers homes

Consultant and Area Manager (Former Employee) - Home - November 11, 2014

Make lots of calls to friends and family to book Body Shop at Home parties. Promote products and offer demonstrations, promote offers and gain sales and future party bookings. The regional manager wasn't a very nice person to work for and had some very devious ways of reaching her team target. I made a complaint to head office when I found out my manager was involved in fraudulent activity. My manager heard about this and she closed my account without warning even though I had customer orders outstanding. Head office reinstated my account and I decided to leave the company. The regional manager in question has since left the company. The products are ethical but some of the managers aren't. We were encouraged to alter offers and prices to increase our sales and profits which I didn't feel was right.

Pros

My bathroom always smelt lovely and I had tons of products for birthday gifts

Cons

Unethical management team
