Pros

- Discount on make-up - Smells good in the store - Freedom to wear your makeup the way you want

Cons

- 20% discount and you don't get as many free products as they claim - No training on products - Terrible management - Competitive co-workers - Rude customers - No room for advancement (most upper management are hired from outside the company) - The hours they give depends on meeting sales goals, so if the store doesn't reach the goal, you don't get the hours. - Schedule is not followed so work/life balance is incredibly unbalanced

Pros

fun getting gratis and hosting in-store events, meeting brand ambassadors/managers, socializing with clients

Cons

manager created a weird environment -- coaching moments were sometimes extremely aggressive for a retail environment; strict on not applying makeup to clients unless they purchase a service. once made me move from a disabled client quickly because I was "spending too much time with them" and to further boost the store sales. felt extremely unethical.
