Pros

Amazing people who are kind, hardworking, and inspiring. The LA office has a lean team which means you get exposure to a lot of new and exciting projects. Plus dogs are allowed in the office, which is a definite morale booster!

Cons

Upper management/executives don't listen to lower-tiered employees on ideas to improve the company, both internally and externally. Strategies change from month-to-month, which trickles down to frustration, confusion, and disorganization. There's no clear communication on how budget is allocated throughout the company, which makes it difficult for the media team to create compelling marketing content.

Pros

None - really, there is absolutely no pro. I really regret coming here.

Cons

They make you work ultra long hours as if it were normal; the pay is below Bay Area. You aren’t working for a tech company; you are working for a sweat shop. If you have any other choice, avoid this place.

Pros

I've worked at some jobs where I loved the job wholeheartedly. I've also worked at other jobs where I couldn't stand stepping foot into the building and was counting down the seconds until I could leave. I'm glad to say I'm fully happy working at ipsy. It's nice working in a fun and welcoming environment. The hours are flexible and the people are great. I feel like I'm appreciated and treated well. I feel like my opinions are heard and I like that I can have fun with my co-workers while still getting work done.

Cons

I seriously can't think of any cons right now. I have to commute a distance from home to work, but other than that, there's nothing bad I can say about working for ipsy.
