Pros

Great products and product education for staff. The stores are beautiful. There were some nice employees, although they didn't tend to stay long.

Cons

Horrible management, focused entirely on marketing but not operations. Snobbish and hierarchical. The cultural clashes between the French, British, and Americans were never well resolved.

Pros

...the job was good. It was full of fun, friendly, dedicated staff who wanted to bring the joy of Provencal cosmetics to new and existing clients. The work environment was once positive and I believe it can be again.

Cons

The company has been headed in an awful direction recently and every action taken smacks of desperation. Operations truly are a nightmare as one boutique manager pointed out. There is way too much that is disorganized from an operational stand point at the corporate level. But the problems are in the boutiques as well. If you are perceived as being a threat to anyone of any kind at any time, you will be slandered, libeled, and verbally brutalized to your face and behind your back. No one in management impacting any location in my district is a decent or trustworthy individual. There is a very pervasive, virulent sickness that is an epidemic in the district where I work. People in higher positions think they don't see anything wrong but are simply being manipulated by their employees and management teams. Its pathetic, sad and unhealthy.
