Pros

Sephora is very generous with their gratis. You will also receive a lot of product knowledge from the various brand reps that come in.

Cons

The downside is that you do not need any previous artistry skills to work there. I am a professional makeup artist and was treated as if I knew nothing. The training is also pretty awful. It's filled with mass amounts of videos that you have to watch and then speak about it. Very elementary. Also the "costume" is hot and uncomfortable.

Pros

Friendly, knowledgeable, supportive coworkers. Management is generally pretty good. You get to work with all the fun products and learn directly from brand reps. And the customers are there to learn about the products - and you get to talk to them about the best products. If you're excited about Sephora, go apply!

Cons

Hours vary based on the time of the year.
