Pros

great company and following. new marketing strategies to build business. great discount. great products. strong name brand very reputable. great skincare. leslie blodgett very involved and thats rare to see from other companies.

Cons

not enough training. not enough gratis. not enough recognition. not enough opportunity for growth or advancement. alot of change. you have to be open to change if not this is not the place for you. this company is still trying to figure what works and what doesn't. it can be frustrating. if you want to grow within a "corporate" position you need a degree. past work experience is not enough even if you already put 5+ years into this company. they only look at what you've done during your time with them. anything beyond that almost doesn't matter. annoying angels/addicts.

Pros

Generous discount Sampling Lets your artistic ability to shine Seasonal Seminars- updates on products pay was ok

Cons

Not treated fairly within staff Way too much gossip talk and rumor starting Company set goals so highly unachievable Employees would get written up for petty things Emails from the DM were too school like- had to write reviews about the week prior in 1-2 pages. No trust with anyone- way too female dominated-too much competition with one another. Not enough payroll hours

Pros

- More than fair discount of 50% - Gratis (free things fairly often) - Great training (I didn't know much about make up or B.E. when I started) - Empowering work environment for a woman - Encourages team work and building meaningful relationships - Fun part time job - Not hard at all if you are a people person and enjoy cosmetics/skincare

Cons

- Hours given may change weekly (but this can change store to store, manager to manager...) - Like any retail environment, there are goals needing to be met (not hard unless you don't do your job) Not really complaints but could be problems for some :)
