Pros

Hands on experience in the beauty world, good opportunity to network and stay up to date on trends and new products. Employee discount and free product. Freedom to express yourself. Used to be pretty fun to work at.

Cons

Recent changes with the addition of the flex position and the unrealistic metrics are causing severe burnout with employees. Short staffed due to low payroll and people quitting all at once. Micro managing. Silent Demotion. Things were better before corporate made these changes. Short breaks. Too many expectations on employees who don't get paid enough and don't make commission. Unless you're full time you don't get benefits other than training product and the discount, and if they silently demote you, all you have is the discount. Hours can be extremely inconsistent and your job title is never truly secure unless you're management.

Pros

Friendly, knowledgeable, supportive coworkers. Management is generally pretty good. You get to work with all the fun products and learn directly from brand reps. And the customers are there to learn about the products - and you get to talk to them about the best products. If you're excited about Sephora, go apply!

Cons

Hours vary based on the time of the year.
