Pros

Set schedules, competitive pay, built in business building tools and training, great health benefits

Cons

Upper management loses focus of company values, tasks continue to increase workload, achievements go without recognition frequently, annual raises withheld if you don't exceed your yearly numbers, growth opportunities without relocation are far and few in between and often are not posted for all interested parties to apply, very little communication under general manager to district manager....no support above store level.

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.
