Pros

Good discount and gratis. The discount is fairly decent but should be a bit more, to be honest. They give you gratis, but even still, I haven't gotten it a lot. The customers and coworkers are amazing.

Cons

Horrible hours and bad management. I know credit cards are important, but to be expected to get one every shift, especially when I only get 5-8 hours a week, is insane. Not to mention, management is outrageous and stingy with hours. I get cut from shifts and told I'm getting sent home because they didn't meet goals when I haven't even worked all week.

Pros

Great discount Gratis is good but having worked for Sephora as well, theirs is way better. Fun customers most of the time

Cons

Glorified babysitter when your team is incompetent Store can quickly become a wreck when one manager isn’t pulling their weight Too many hats in this role and way too overbearing. I thought I’d need to see a neurologist for migraines but it turns out I was just way too stressed in my role. ai. And a big push for more and more ai in the future.
