Pros

Discount for makeup and skincare. Meeting cool people.

Cons

Expect a career - not gonna happen, expect raise - 15 cents a year is a raise, everything else is negotiable to $1 a year, if you worth more no one cares. All the values that they talk about are only in the book, all they want is SELL- SELL- SELL. No commission, no thank you for multi-clienting 4 people at a time for 6-8 hours straight and a miserable bonus. 40% of my co-workers quit before 6 month of employment. I never got a full-time position. I'm quitting this month and very happy about it.

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.
