Pros

gratis (sometimes), good discount on products and salon services, get to play with makeup

Cons

stupid customers that can't read the exclusions on coupons, managers that sit in the office and "hang out" together, gratis only if you get a certain amount of stupid allure and glamor magazine subscriptions, low pay for the amount of work/stress, favoritism among fellow coworkers, no room for growth

Pros

Great discount Gratis is good but having worked for Sephora as well, theirs is way better. Fun customers most of the time

Cons

Glorified babysitter when your team is incompetent Store can quickly become a wreck when one manager isn’t pulling their weight Too many hats in this role and way too overbearing. I thought I’d need to see a neurologist for migraines but it turns out I was just way too stressed in my role. ai. And a big push for more and more ai in the future.
