Pros

Loving the product and learning even more about it, interacting with clients who share the same passion for Bare Minerals, AWESOME discount and great under management staff. I love making people feel great about themselves and educating them on a product that I, 150%, believe in.

Cons

Upper management. Seems to be the common trend across the country with this company. Their strict rules on attendance (recently changed to no grace period.. not even a minute!) makes it impossible to love going to your job. You can't call in sick, you can't get any leeway on situations that are out of your control (car accidents, traffic, the mandatory shuttle bus ride during holidays-for malls), you can't be human. They focus so much on discipline on the small things and not enough praise or recognition for good work. Definitely favoritism is a HUGE thing with upper management. As well as lack of actual management training for those who are in the position. I was a manager of 40+ employees before going to work at the Bare Minerals boutique and the managers there can barely handle and figure out how to appropriately manage less than 10 employees.
