Pros

I loved every day I went in to my Sephora! They do a great job at selecting and retaining their top talent. I believe Sephora is the best company I have ever worked for because they truly CARE! They devote several different resources, time in money educating their staff s that the customers are educated! I believe this this what makes this company better than the rest of the beauty companies! Sephora employees are not there to just show you, they are there to TEACH and to enhance your life! I personally prefer the Sephora inside JcPenney model, because the girls are knowledgeable about all things in Sephora versus having zones (i.e. color, fragrance, skincare) and only knowing solid info about their zones, like in the main Sephora. Oh and the gratis! BEST perk in the world! Sephora is the only company I could see myself actually wanting to stay in and grow with.

Cons

It's retail pay and hours, so that can be difficult but the culture of Sephora makes it well worth it. Sephora inside JcPenney has a couple kinks they are working out, but it because they are growing like crazy. They are really resurrecting JcPenney!

Pros

fun getting gratis and hosting in-store events, meeting brand ambassadors/managers, socializing with clients

Cons

manager created a weird environment -- coaching moments were sometimes extremely aggressive for a retail environment; strict on not applying makeup to clients unless they purchase a service. once made me move from a disabled client quickly because I was "spending too much time with them" and to further boost the store sales. felt extremely unethical.
