Pros

You get to play with make up before the store opens, free discontinued or new products from sales reps, and you also get a 20% employee discount! You are

Cons

You are required to wear a full face of make-up, not a big deal for people who have tons of time...challenging if you have another (more messy) job, or kids. Working weekends was the worst! Also, I was hired as a fragrance consultant because I didn't posess a cosmetology license, (my 4 year fine art degree didn't adequately prepare me to sell blush to pimply teens according to middle management) . What they don't (and should) require is a degree in criminology, because there are at times more shoplifters than customers

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.

Pros

Friendly, knowledgeable, supportive coworkers. Management is generally pretty good. You get to work with all the fun products and learn directly from brand reps. And the customers are there to learn about the products - and you get to talk to them about the best products. If you're excited about Sephora, go apply!

Cons

Hours vary based on the time of the year.
