TONS of free products Vendors always come in to educate about the brands

Cons

When someone calls out, don't plan on taking a break/lunch Often felt micromanaged while on the sales floor Took time to be able to listen to headset voices while listening to customers and other things around you...LOTS of talking on the headsets

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.
