Pros

great work environment, everyone was extremely humane and cared for others while genuinely caring about what we sold (cosmetics skincare etc)

Cons

you basically have to be a product encyclopedia and have a great knowledge and talent in makeup to be a beauty consultant but they pay minimum wage.. does not make any sense...

Great Career Experience

Pros

Provided with the $$ and systems to be able to deliver on company and department initiatives. This is huge if you work in a non-revenue generating area of the business. Ability to build and grow a great team. Compensation/Benefits/perks are awesome for a retail company based in Bay Area. Inclusive culture and incredible work life balance. Smart and practical CFO. CEO truely does care about the employees

Cons

Internal politics run rampant in some departments...you can find yourself backing the wrong horse in the race until its too late. Sometimes there is more importance put on making political allies than producing actual work. No accountability
