      I was never appreciated or valued in this company.

      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.

      A horrible place to work if you have ANY experience in make up artistry

      Senior education consultant

      Pros

      A great place to work if you are a beginner and looking for a great place to learn the basics.

      Cons

      This company does not care at all about their product consultants as well as their clients all it is to them is how much money they can make and how fast they can make it . This is due to over saturation.

      Workplace not for everyone

      Anonymous employee
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Super innovative company Strong growth, continues to win year after year Dynamic company that encourages risk taking Very generous bonus which makes up for lower than anticipated base salary Great benefits - including 4 weeks for vacation and unlimited sick days

      Cons

      For a company that generates in billions in sales, operates like a start up Company only invest in client interfacing but back office systems are sub par Communication is poor within team as well as cross functionally Highly emotional environment based on FEAR where leaders feel beaten down which has trickling effect Very political environment and finger pointing (despite corporate values of "respect for all") For newbies coming into the company, will face tremendous culture shock, this workplace is not for everyone - must have very thick skin or be able to duke it out
