Pros

Purposeful brand, giving higher order benefit and meaning. Highly committed and engaged employees and wonderful customers. Part of the Estee Lauder Companies, a distinguished and professionally managed company with great leaders such as Fabrizio Freda, Leonard Lauder and William Lauder.

Cons

Dogmatic top leadership at Aveda wit a "knows it all" CEO that plays kind. Based in Blain, MN - very cold and long winters.

Targets are high, hard to get people to buy

Pros

I worked at Aveda for over 2 years before being laid off due to our location closing. Management was fair and flexible. The job itself was pretty easy and mindless.

Cons

The pay is just "okay". You won't survive solely on this job unless you have someone helping you significantly financially or you have other jobs. There is not much upward mobility. Managers stay in their positions 5-7 years or so many of them.
