Pros

Maesa is rapidly growing and evolving, with plenty of opportunity for growth and exposure to a wide range of projects and topics. The company is becoming a sizeable player in Beauty, and seems to be finding its stride after a few tumultuous years with frequent leadership changes. There are a lot of great people at the company, the office is beautiful, and there are some fun and creative brands

Cons

Growing pains! Maesa is stuck a bit between an established company and the start up it once was. Processes are constantly evolving as the company finds the right balance, which can cause friction. Things do seem to be improving though

Pros

I've been here for a few years and Like any company, there are good days and challenging days, but I think some of the recent reviews don't paint the full picture. This is a fast-paced beauty company with an entrepreneurial, startup mindset. Priorities can shift quickly, and there are definitely times when things get busy, but that's part of working in this industry. If you enjoy solving problems, wearing multiple hats, and working with smart, passionate people, you'll likely thrive here. One thing I've found is that transparency goes a long way. If you're open with your manager about your workload or need support, they're willing to help prioritize and find solutions. No workplace is perfect, but I've always felt that communication is encouraged. Because it's such a collaborative environment, you'll work with a lot of different personalities and cross-functional teams. Being adaptable, having a positive attitude, and developing a thick skin will definitely help you succeed. This probably isn't the best fit if you're looking for a slow-paced environment with highly predictable days. But if you're energized by building brands, moving quickly, and making an impact, Maesa offers a lot of opportunities to learn and grow.

Cons

Fast pace can be challenging at times, priorities can change quickly, and you'll need to be comfortable with ambiguity, but that's also what makes the work exciting.
