Pros

they offer free stuff "gratis" for work well done, usually signing people up for Beauty Insider cards or staying late.

Cons

not a great discount, 10% as I recall. Also, worked there while taking time off from college. The manager agreed to complete this employer form I needed but obv took no time completing it. It looked like crap, basically wrote "I don't know and I don't care" all over it.

Pros

fun getting gratis and hosting in-store events, meeting brand ambassadors/managers, socializing with clients

Cons

manager created a weird environment -- coaching moments were sometimes extremely aggressive for a retail environment; strict on not applying makeup to clients unless they purchase a service. once made me move from a disabled client quickly because I was "spending too much time with them" and to further boost the store sales. felt extremely unethical.
