Pros

Sephora does care about it's employees, but seemingly more at the lower level. Plenty of opportunity to move up if you are just starting your management career and they give you a lot of opportunity for growth if you put forth an effort. As a Store Director in St Louis, the DM and RVP have not been Store Directors in their past so a lot of miscommunication or a lack of general understanding of the job, time involved in completing tasks, very high expectations.

Cons

As a Store Director in St Louis, the DM and RVP have not been Store Directors in their past so a lot of miscommunication or a lack of general understanding of the job, time involved in completing tasks, very high expectations. Sephora always has about 3 or 4 "focuses", which makes it hard to focus on just one thing and get it mastered. Despite the great client service, it seems clients are never happy, which leads to more stress.

Pros

The gratis is amazing, the discount is also equally amazing, work/life balance is respected. Brand Training, makeup application, room for growth, experience to be made, lifelong friends to be made, great networking connections with other brands.

Cons

I think its only in my store but we dont have our own brush belts, 2yrs with the company and I still have not been to any SOS or any formal Sephora training. Favoritism, management not listening to employees, rude store director, lies about availability of certain positions. In the past 2 yrs I have worked at Sephora, numerous people have quit and 4 LEADS have quit!!!
