Pros

Employee discount, great coworkers, employee samples

Cons

This company has got to absolutely be the worst company I have ever worked for. They change policies all the time and there’s no professionalism when it comes to upper management. Upper managerment has her own set of favorite managers so if you’re not on her good side or you don’t kiss up to her, good luck to you, your employees and your store. You get in trouble and get the blame for bad shrink even when your store’s location is in a bad area and another thing, they also threaten your job. Some goals are unrealistic and the people who are putting these new policies in place have most likely never worked retail at all or haven’t worked in one for awhile. They expect too much to pay so little. They also want PART TIMERS to have an OPEN AVAILABILITY otherwise they’re not fit for the job. This company is ridiculous. Stay far far away from Sally Beauty and if you’re planning on leaving, leave and never look back!!!!

Pros

Trying new products Assisting customers with product recommendations Commission on certain items

Cons

The daily revenue quota was at times very unrealistic and unattainable. A lot of pressure was put on our team to sell x/dollars per day but sometimes it just wasn't realistic (bad weather, lots of returns some days).

Pros

The people I worked with were always really cool and it was honestly a very easy job.

Cons

Upper level management was too uptight about certain goals that were unrealistic for beauty advisors, but there was never any big repercussions. Too little pay for the amount of work I did.
