Pros

The culture and the people are what make Sephora a great company to work for, life long business partners are made here. The amount of experience people have is incredible.

Cons

Do not pay market value, not even remotely close at the corporate office. Upper management has unrealistic expectations. You do the work of at least 3 people at any given time. The correct people are always overlooked for promotion, and they will promote people who have no experience or a clue on what they are doing.

Pros

+ monthly training gratis + brand and product training + exposure to working with luxury brands + technology device supplements role

Cons

- unstable hours / unstable income - part-time employee classification has a wide weekly hourly gap (e.g., 15-29 weekly hours) and the availability expectation is that of a full-time (e.g., required to be open 4-5 a week, open to close) - minimal career growth if wanting to become full-time within the same store
