Pros

The concept of the company is amazing - inclusion, diversity, empowerment -- and then it stops.

Cons

The CEO is a narcissistic, foul-mouthed, abusive bully who takes delight in verbally lashing employees at every level in public settings. She deliberately encourages an environment of distrust, collegial disrespect, and gossip and is volatile -- often shouting and sometimes raging out of control. Her behavior isn't befitting her title and responsibility and the false face she puts on in front of fans, celebrities, and investors is sickening. As an executive, she didn't frighten me but the number of young people she has abused and who think all work environments are like that, is disheartening. She has no business acumen, preferring to gauge success by the number of Instagram posts she is tagged in rather than fostering an accountable and financially stable organization. Most of her decisions are poor ones. Additionally, she deliberately holds back payments with excuse after excuse; whether for lack of capital or for sport -- both are inexcusable. There is not one single redeeming thing about this woman.

Could not possibly agree more! Empowerment is the message we are all given from the moment we walk through the doors at Beautycon and it starts with a mandate from leadership to always be teaching and learning. Sometimes “hustler” has the wrong context; however, hustle, work ethic, and focus are skills everyone at Beautycon will turn into success if they truly want it and commit to the process. Thank you for sharing your experience!
