Pros

The stores are all located in great neighborhoods and easy to get to. It's a fun work environment with tons of beauty products and the customers are mostly sweet and love shopping there. They are super generous with samples and offer great spa services and events, which makes it fairly easy to get customers love the place and you. They ll ask you to add your personal touch and want you to plan small events and then get credit for it. Love that. Their mission is pretty straight forward and if you have somewhat common sense, you can quickly navigate through all their processes. You do need to have some sort of business sense. At times it definitely feels like you are running your own store. They open stores everywhere right now. Definitely good place to stay and start a career. Management seems invested and supportive and offers weekly reviews about performance. Sometimes a little pressured but I get it. It's retail. They offer benefits, 401k, a bonus for hitting your sales goal, weekly contests and prizes and a discount on all the products they sell. Really like that spa.

Cons

Not alot of product training initially. Definitely helpful coming with lots of make up experience. Schedules is posted a bit late at times. Staff is small, if someone calls out you may need to jump in for them.
