Pros

I have to say that being around the products all the time and the discounts we get are the best reasons to work here. Everything else depends on who you work with and other things out of your control (like the customers and the whims of corporate).

Cons

I'm not a fan of the whole checkout process where we have to push InStyles and set up beauty club memberships. It slows everything down and the lines get long and there has to be a better way of doing those things. And the restrictions on what customers can get with the coupons are too tight.

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
