Pros

Lots of perks such as full size samples of new beauty products for free, the idea being you'll get to try the product and speak to its merits to customers when selling. Can be a great environment to work in with guaranteed steady hours. However, this highly depends on your co-workers, store manager and regional manager. If you are interested in beauty products, you'll get training and become highly familiar with all the professional beauty products and tools out there. Store is only open to licensed cosmetologists, so you're not working with the general public.

Cons

Not much room for growth. In my experience, when a Store Manager position opened up, they opted to hire someone outside the company when they had a dedicated Assistant Manager who had worked there for 8 years and done an excellent job. The new Manager made no effort to even pretend to care about her duties, and being that the stores are small and tend to have a 3-9 person staff, all her responsibilities fell on our shoulders for half the pay. Pay is minimal - barely above minimum wage (at least when I was employed there). Weekends are required, so you can except to be working every weekend, unless you are the Store Manager who is only required to work one Saturday per month.

Pros

Easy job Discount Free samples(sometimes) Don’t have to deal with the public because it is only licensed professionals

Cons

You work alone for a few outs Also if you are scheduled Sundays you work alone. Some people come in and steal and it’s scary if you don’t know how to handle the situation. Especially if you are alone Even though you don’t have to deal with the public you do at the same time because some people come in and try to shop even though they don’t have a license.
