Pros

Very innovative, brilliant marketing and products. If you are a strong person, would recommend the merchandising or marketing depts. avoid IT. This is not a technology focused company.

Cons

Politics can get to you. Expect poor work life balance 3 and 4th quarters of the year Some departments are heavily focused on like merchandising. Definitely not a tech focused company. If you are in IT they will band aid something to death before investing in a rewrite.

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.
