Pros

Amazing gratis, good work life balance(at least with my management), Flexible Scheduling(again subjective to management), health and vision benefits if you're full time.

Cons

Business is slow, Upper management is difficult to coordinate with and is horrible at hiring people who care, they cut hours without notice, no commission(which is a pro and con), and no Holiday pay.

Pros

Some free makeup/skincare, lots of training, opportunities for commission

Cons

Competition between coworkers for commission, lots of push from management to sell M61, the brand that the owner herself makes, and monthly goals are strictly enforced

Pros

Gratis Relatively easy work load for most of the year Reasonable Hours of operations Access to some great educational resources

Cons

Very disorganized company Full time is considered 30 hours and up and with tight weekly hour budgets good luck making any money Inventory issues that caused customers to be mad at the staff Corporate can make mistakes but you can’t mentality No real process for managers to hold staff accountable for policy’s like time and attendance Higher ups lie about what they hold their teams accountable too Horrible relay of information and communication Goal increases of over 100% over LY at times
