Doesn't RecommendNeutral OutlookNo opinion of CEOI worked at MAC Cosmetics part-time for more than 3 years
Pros
Gratis, playing with makeup all day, great discount, some really fun coworkers
Cons
Insanely high goals, a cap limit per year of what you could spend before losing your discount, focused more on sales and not artistry, absent district managers and fairly dramatic employees. Some good and bad ones, the ones that were good were good, the one that were bad were BAD. Don’t ever expect to get weekends off or to take your vacation when planned.
