      Pros

      had fun with makeup and the gratis is a plus.love helping customers.

      Cons

      managent is involved in too much nepotism. only promotes friends, bullies, and harasses. basically promotes people with no merit and no drive other than to gossip and bring others down. worst management ever!!!!! when i voiced my desire to move up it was twisted to seem wrong, but in all the books I've read i thought self sufficiency was supposed to be a plus. but i blame the people in charge.

      Pros

      Personal development focus. Adaptable and growing company. Leadership works with you based on your will to develop your own career. Must be great at critical thinking and decision making. Great perks and great Support of managers in general.

      Cons

      Tenured managers not as valued as newly hired leadership. Sometimes feels said Corporate Leadership holds grudges and does not reward effort of Leadership at the store level enough.

      IT Group: Opportunity and Dysfunction

      Pros

      Sephora is classic retail IT: reasonable hours, predictable responsibilities, top-heavy management, access to world-class technologies, systems and equipment. The 4 weeks of vacation, unlimited sick-time and bonus structure (half a year's pay in my case, when we have a good year) are fantastic.

      Cons

      Top-heavy management. Dysfunctional relationships between software development and product development, worsened by management style and insecurity. Obvious racial profiling in the IT group when hiring for management positions (It's what they call an "Indian shop"). Very few promotions in the overall IT group -- I think they figure the benefits and lifestyle are so good that promotions aren't necessary.
