Pros

Good pay, including bonuses and gratis (free full sized product). Usually work 9pm-2am if stocking or early morning 8am-11am for updates at beginning of the year. Mostly did deep cleaning of displays, damages, stocking, updating displays. This job had a lot of perks--got a lot of free skincare and makeup.

Cons

Hours are for night owls. Culture is very sales and CLI driven. High pressure during holiday season.

Pros

Fun environment, seems like management strive to make you feel welcome and want you to do be and do well. There was always a contest/prize or event going on that helped motive you to engage with clients. Constant and consistent education on products and promotions. Loved being rotated to different sections of the store throughout shifts. Management made sure you got/took breaks/lunch. Gratis.

Cons

I really don't have any cons, I guess standing all the time? However, if you enjoy talking about and helping clients select makeup, fragrance, and skin care then it really doesn't seem like work and the time flies.
