Great cosmetics company, lousy department store to work for - Beauty Advisor Clinique Employee Review

Unfortunately, you don't just report to Clinique- you report to the department store that houses your counter. And that's a whole different ballgame. Sales goals are usually ridiculously high, and you're expected to badger people to open credit cards and participate in pre-sale events. You are also expected to manage dozens, possibly hundreds of Clinique clients- you're supposed to call 10 clients a day and check in on them re: needing products, pre-sale, etc. I find this invasive.
