Pros

Learning about good makeup and hair products and, over time, building relationships with frequent customers, some of whom are the nicest people. Oftentimes, the relationships you build with other employees turn into close friendships.

Cons

Members of management are the biggest con about the Cary Ulta. I've seen excellent management teams in the past. This group, however, is made up of the most Immature, lazy, overly demanding, irresponsible, unsympathetic, selfish, derogatory, hypocritical, unorganized, clueless people I've ever had to work with.

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
