Pros

Great knowledge obtained for various types of products in the beauty industry. Good incentives to make kpis. Samples monthly.

Cons

Compensation is not geared towards working class adults, more suited for yound adults or students. Also the pay scale/raise scale is a joke,literally. Too many responsibilities for barely minimum wage. Management will use you as personal lackey and scapegoat whenever Corporate shows up.

Pros

My store manager and team were wonderful! If you make the right moves you can move up the ladder reasonably quickly,

Cons

You can move up the ladder quickly because turnover is so high. Management will lie to you and tell you whatever you want to hear to keep you from leaving. Your experience is entirely dependent on who your store manager is and if they are willing to advocate for you. District management does not care about employees.
