Pros

There is not one pro to this job at all. if you’re manager was nice enough you’re supposed to receive gratis. Which you didn’t get until you asked about 400 times. Employee discount on the bootleg second hand products.

Cons

-Dock your pay -Unreasonable Hours -Unknowledgeable associates but hey if they can move a box on the shelves, They’re qualified!!! -Upper management -no organization -no respect -low starting pay -never weekends off -bad management -can’t request off on personal events -Request for us to lie to customer about merchandise, promotions and policies.

Pros

They have started getting out of the past and now have flex days and causal dress. My manager seemed to really care about her employees work load and professional growth. I was encouraged to try out new ideas.

Cons

Over the past few years they have had lay offs. They just had a massive layoff in April. The employees that are left are over worked and wondering if they will be in the next round of layoffs.

Pros

None really anymore other than they still have an on-site cafeteria which makes it convenient.

Cons

I work in the corporate office. It used to be a great company to work for. The CEO talks the talk but doesn't walk the walk. None of the ideas implemented to better the company have worked which not every new change will but his latest and greatest solution last year was a "restructuring" program which meant a lot of really talented and the most dedicated employees were let go. The management team thinking along with the CEO is to bring in new people with new ideas but little to no experience in the beauty industry and to remove a majority of the tenured people who made the company once great. Now, with the new ideas not working, most of the people that knew how to make the business work are gone and it's gone from a mess to just short of a disaster. With this senior management team in place, it's not how but when things will go from bad to worse.
