Pros

Awesome gratis, lots of hours, hands on work and family attitude throughout the team. This is a very fun job, if you have the right team. Having good management is important as well, they provide quality training especially as a key holder

Cons

9+ hours standing on your feet, long shifts, no time off, shady back stabbing. Many stores are catty and cliquey. Never had a job with such extreme drama and unprofessionalism with managers AND employees. Managers often are condescending and gossip about employees TO other employees. As a beauty ambassador you never get properly trained, rather thrown out on the sales floor and then get in trouble for doing something wrong. You will likely be cleaning up after the entire team, cleanliness is not a priority-only numbers are. You often feel your job or title is in jeopardy for not coming out on top. There is no commission but everyone is competitive and you YOURSELF get blamed as a keyholder if you do not meet goals for the whole store. Often these standards are near impossible to meet in certain circumstances and these are not accounted for. Corporate is even worse. Extremely fake and snobby and unprofessional. Many documents often have typos. Please save yourself and find a better company that’s more put together.
