Pros

The company is pretty well liked by customers who use its products so you don't have too much trouble with clients.

Cons

This is your typical extremely racist and bigoted French cosmetics company. All image, no substance. This is not a job for people with actual talent or high potential performers. The management is rude, abusive and makes racial and ethnic slurs with impunity. Unless you are a WASP or of a culture that can help K-Beauty cross over into L'Occitane you will be abused and demoralized for your heritage. There is even plenty of unchecked severe homophobia. If you like L'Occitane products I would look to purchase them from another retailer rather than a boutique because direct support of the store-level employees who are abusive and racist is unconscionable violation of human rights. Basically, if you wouldn't vote for a specific conservative Presidential candidate in this election don't give anyone who collects a paycheck from this company your time or your money. It's really that bad.
