Pros

I have to say that being around the products all the time and the discounts we get are the best reasons to work here. Everything else depends on who you work with and other things out of your control (like the customers and the whims of corporate).

Cons

I'm not a fan of the whole checkout process where we have to push InStyles and set up beauty club memberships. It slows everything down and the lines get long and there has to be a better way of doing those things. And the restrictions on what customers can get with the coupons are too tight.

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.
