Pros

Ulta has a nice atmosphere and the store stays very clean. Working with a large amount of make up brands makes work interesting.

Cons

Managers are very disrespectful to staff and customers. They sit around in their office all day long and call up to the front register to tell the sales associate to work harder, while they are just surfing the web. While they only hire petite little girls they also expect 2 or 3 of them to stock the entire store in one morning.

Pros

Gratis There are good hard working people that want to do well. I am still there (barely) because I haven’t completely given up that things will be handled/addressed correctly for those not aligned with company vision and expectations. However after 5 years of inaction it’s hard to believe that positive change will actually and maybe just maybe Myself and others that are dedicatedI will be recognized vs taken for granted.

Cons

No furthering development Keep toxic (leaders especially) allowing unacceptable behavior conduct and violation of company code Communication is very poor…it’s inconsistent,For example managers are not provided with direct email accounts so it’s a community email box. This causes a large amount of information to be read by the wrong audience and is not communicated if read by the wrong leader
