Pros

The company is moving fast and expects you to move twenty times the speed of normal. This allows you to gain tons of exposure to many departments in a short space of time. Free products Occasional sponsored lunch

Cons

Upper level management is a joke. Only friends get promoted within departments and the rest get left to be forgotten about. Gossiping around every corner and not enough meaningful work getting done. All work is sugar coated to make the company not appear like it’s failing. Pay is not competitive in the slightest. Easily $10-$15k under market value.

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.
