Pros

:Discount :Teammates :Playing with bubbles

Cons

:Managers are incompetent :Expected to berate and force customers into trying product :Want everyone doing things (parties, events,etc) that are above and beyond their wage. :Clear and present favortism. If you can not guarantee that everyone will love you, don’t bother. At least don’t work at the West Ed location. :Drama is rampant and managers do nothing to set or uphold boundaries. :People that are supposed to be in charge of certain aspects of the business (stock) then take the day off that they are expected to be in charge and no one does anything about it, except put others in their place instead of holding that manager accountable. :other managers are so frail mentally, that stubbing their toe equals a breakdown. And I’m all for mental health and supporting each other, however if you can’t keep it together through call outs and other such issues, then you’re not fit to be a manager. Cause that’s the job. :DMs come in and stalk you when with customers, making it so uncomfortable and setting unreasonable expectations, then a different head office person comes through and you’re doing amazing things. Where’s the consistency with expectations. :No raises in 2023, finally got one in 2025, but again does not equal the workload. Might as well just become a dermatologist or pharmacist at this point, given lush’s expectations of employees knowledge levels.

Pros

Discounts, we got 50% off of most items

Cons

Unhygienic, stressful, money hungry, fear monger. Unprofessional managers both as an employee and customer. Never experienced such low life conditions, manager brought in animal multiple times in store, and made staff clean its pee. Customers were floored, inexcusable and HR is unresponsive. The bathroom is disgusting, and inaccessible. I cannot imagine any one with a physical disability being able to use the restroom. It was so difficult to suck in your stomach, then trip on box after box. They BLOCK the fridge and made us put our food in our tiny lockers. Manager is too comfortable with the amount of time spent within the company to ever fear facing any consequences or repercussions. Even fired staff in the past for contacting HR for help.
