Pros
Gratis, bonuses and the education make sephora inside a jcpenney worth it. If you are just starting your career this is the place to start it at.
Cons
unlike big sis, sijcp takes all the artistry out of Sephora, and compared to MAC and other retailers i have worked for, our number one complaint is lack of talent. Hiring at other prestige brands is based in some part on artistry. Sijcp has a retention problem and this is because they hire people who dont have the passion for the products. All the beauty leaders and regional managers i have worked with cant even comprehend a basic Smokey eye. Also movement in the company is a slim, and if there is in my territory they move a person far from home, to "show dedication" to the company. If you are looking for a leadership position and you have kids or a life forget it!
