Where do I even begin? To start, the company has grown too fast and isn't prepared for all the rapid growth and changes happening. When I started at ipsy, I rarely saw a colleague leave the company. Now, I can count at least a dozen people from various departments, junior to senior level, who have left ipsy since the beginning of the year. The head of people, who supposedly is in charge of growth, hasn't made any real, positive changes or impact which has resulted in the loss of many employees. Management is very hit or miss, all depending on which organization you're in. A lot of unqualified people are in higher roles, while some individuals who work hard every day are not being recognized. Some departments are doing great, but most are suffering with the turnover rate ipsy is currently experiencing. There have been multiple incidents where employees were practically promised a promotion, only to come find it wouldn't be happening. If you do get promoted, it's likely because they want to be cost effective and pay you a low salary instead of hiring an external applicant who knows their salary worth. They won't provide standing desks for less valued departments, but will keep certain higher up employees for reasons unknown to everyone. And pay? Don't expect a high salary unless you're senior level or are worked to the bone, then finally given the salary you deserved. At the end of the day, I don't believe that makeup subscriptions will last much longer and are very much a trend, so I'm glad I got to experience ipsy's glory years.
