Pros
They allow a lot of flexibility with hours. You communicate your availability, and they base your schedule off of that. There is also the option to both pick up extra shifts/offer scheduled shifts when you need one covered. This is great for when you are sick, have an emergency, or just need a day off! The company does offer gratis (free products) monthly in exchange for watching weekly training videos. We also have the generous 25% associate discount and 50% off services, and sometimes they’ll stack additional discounts on popular brands. However, we cannot pay our bills with gratis, so considering the workload, the pay is not necessarily worth it to me. This job is great for young people interested in the beauty industry, students, etc., but if you are an adult with responsibilities, it is hard to make a living with these kind of wages at part time hours.
Cons
The workload does not match the compensation. They expect a lot from their associates. We are responsible for pushing the overall sales of the store, but we do not reap the benefits as we don’t earn commission or regular bonuses.
