Pros

as management you have some flexibility with your schedule, the job isnt hard if you stay on top of it

Cons

the pay is embarrasing upper management lies when it comes to salaries your volume may go up but your pay wont alot of stress at times alot of hrs so then you make less than your employees. home office emplotees are very rude dont want to tell you what you have coming to you. from personal experience watch what u say or ask because upper mgmt will turn on you quick. this company hires alot of people who are not qualified nor have the skills for mgmt but you get what you pay for and guess what these lazy ones still get paid most times more than you....hmmmm

Pros

Trying new products Assisting customers with product recommendations Commission on certain items

Cons

The daily revenue quota was at times very unrealistic and unattainable. A lot of pressure was put on our team to sell x/dollars per day but sometimes it just wasn't realistic (bad weather, lots of returns some days).

Pros

The people I worked with were always really cool and it was honestly a very easy job.

Cons

Upper level management was too uptight about certain goals that were unrealistic for beauty advisors, but there was never any big repercussions. Too little pay for the amount of work I did.
