Lots of promises; fail to deliver.

Pros

You learn to help a wide variety of clients. Most people who work for Sephora are creative so it's cool to connect with those kinds of coworkers.

Cons

Poorly managed. If you're not a favorite expect to go nowhere. Low pay.

Pros

The pay is good for a retail company. Sephora always seems to hit high bonus targets, which pay nicely.

Cons

Your base pay will be low. They try to make up for this with a nice bonus, but if you don't hit your targets, you'll be stuck with a low base. Some departments can't manage their workload well.

Pros

Great fun WHEN you can work. The Director that hired me was great and super excited to have someone with my knowledge base working there, but the new leadership seemed to be somewhat intimidated by someone who knew more.

Cons

If you are a straight man it seems that this company is not comfortable with you. There were only 2 straight guys and one was a manager but at least 6-8 makeup wearing guys, I know I was far better at my position than any one in the store and sold several times the volume, but yet the other seasonal "guys" were kept and I was pretty much shunned without even a face to face discussion.
