Pros

Fun environment, discounts and monthly gratis. We can make samples to take home and that helps us sell the products to customers

Cons

Raises and pay rates are unfair in my location. There is favoritism and hipocracy and not enough coaching and accountability for members of upper management, which includes myself.

Pros

-Very generous discount. -Gratis -Boutiques are beautiful -Coworkers were great! -Management was very kind -Many opportunities for advancement -Clean and fun work environment Overall, I loved working for Bare Escentuals! This position has opened up many doors for me in other areas.

Cons

-Sales goals were impossible for low traffic stores -Bonuses were very low for non-management -Many of the kits/items we had to push for the season did not work well with our area's demographic. Out clients were mostly conservative women in their 40's+ who are not going to wear silver and blue eyeshadow. We wanted more neutral eye kits to sell. While my coworkers were the sweetest ladies I have ever met, most of them viewed their positions as just a way to make a little extra money on the side. Many of them were housewives who were not seeking a career. Because of this, there was very little desire to go above and beyond in creating events that would bring in more clients.
