Pros

Fast growth, exciting challenges, people who care a lot about the company and the industry. Honest people with good values.

Cons

Executives manage by hiring consultants. We pretend that avoiding disagreement is the same thing as collaboration. CEO and her team drink their own kool-aid too often. We don't hold leaders accountable for not delivering what they said they would.

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.
