Pros
Flexible hours, fun working environment (at times), includes both services and retail sales, part of LVMH luxury beauty brand, opportunity to earn tips & prizes with sales contests/incentives, Full Time position offers full benefits (Medical, dental, 401K options (that are matched up to 5% by employer), and paid vacation and sick time.
Cons
Requires standing almost entire shift, Base pay is not on par with cost of living and merit based raises are often stingy and/or not given in a timely manner. Management is often lacking & store has high staff turnover and is often grossly understaffed. Proper security staff is lacking relative to high shoplifting/"smash & grab" incidents continuously recurring. Necessary store supplies are often neglected & often not received in a timely manner when ordered. Communication is often not thorough between management, corporate & store levels on most issues. Corporate greed tends to rule in this large company. Unrealistic goals and expectations are set & employees are pretty much set up for failure because of it. There is no cancellation policy or fee (and therefore consequences) for late cancellations/no-showing to booked appointments (which only hurts the employee). Does not always live up to its "values" in most aspects.
