Pros

Very Positive Company to work for, very good core values the company tries to follow. Customers were very loyal to the brand and really listened to the advice we would give them about the products.

Cons

Pay was very low for an assistant manager ($8.50), especially when my district manager told me i was the best assistant in the district and practically ran the store. Very poor communication between corporate offices and the stores it would take weeks for a paycheck to get corrected if there was an error.

Pros

You receive a great discount and are given five pieces of make-up when you first begin work. The customers are usually regulars that you become familiar with and the company is very environmentally and socially conscious participating in frequent and ongoing campaigns.

Cons

The pay is below the average, there is little room for advancement and unless you are a store manager or work in a large store there is not much chance of getting anywhere near a full-time schedule. I worked there for six months and never received feedback on my performance once.
