Pros

Good work/life balance compared to other industries. Fun and young work environment.

Cons

Mangement does not support career development. Very difficult to get promoted right now, partly because people are not leaving the company due to lack of other opportunities in the job market. Also difficult to get promoted unless you play office politics.

Pros

Great field to work in if you have a passion for cosmetics. You get to meet great people, share your knowledge and make money at the same time. Planning events, striving for your goals and managing your counter are some of the high lights of this position. Working along with other women who share the same passion is a great experience. I love working with women of all ages, you can learn so much about your self.

Cons

Newly implemented procedures and initiatives, have taken away from the focus of customer attention. New paper work and observations and coaching are redundant and non productive.
