Pros

Fun environment, good pay, chance to practice doing what you love.

Cons

Management. It was my first week working at Sephora inside JC Penny and there was a struggle in schedule. I am a full time student in beauty school. I am released at 4:30pm from school. They do not care about your personal life. I was fired because I was 5 minutes late within my first week, and did not have a "full face." no proper training or information on how they want your face to look. So apparently if you're missing eyeliner you can get fired when the manager herself doesn't even have a "full face." No specifics on what they are looking for.

Pros

I've worked at two different locations in different cities. Both locations have WONDERFUL management, they are always super understanding. They lead with integrity and passion for beauty. Gratis is always a plus! But being apart of a team that has your back and truly wants to see you thrive makes all the difference!

Cons

I really don't have any cons for Sephora. They have poured into me the same way I've poured into the clients that come into the store. My only wish would be that Flex employees also receive gratis because they too need training products in order to recommend brands to clients.
