- Gratis once a quarter (every 3 months) / Good employee discounts - Get to learn about different brands/ throw in-store events

-No weekends or Holidays off / Blackout dates / No OT allowed - no commission/ yearly raise is a few cents - Accountability structures can vary by leadership level, and some employees feel expectations are not always applied consistently across different tiers of management.

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.
