Pros

They have koolaid. They tell you you're so pretty (but only when you're as pretty as everyone else). They give you free stuff, so you don't feel bad that you can't afford to buy it. You wear a uniform, so you don't have to worry about buying clothes (which is good because you can't afford them). They train you how to do someone else's makeup because makeup should be ordered from a menu, like at McDonalds, and it should be consistent and predictable, like at McDonalds.

Cons

The health insurance doesn't cover the doctor's visit for when you get pink eye from using the testers. You can't get ahead in the company if you're not a Stepford wife (It's for the best, because you'll still be dependent on your husband. Thank god you're married).

Pros

Friendly, knowledgeable, supportive coworkers. Management is generally pretty good. You get to work with all the fun products and learn directly from brand reps. And the customers are there to learn about the products - and you get to talk to them about the best products. If you're excited about Sephora, go apply!

Cons

Hours vary based on the time of the year.
