Pros

More gratis than you could ever use; generous bonus structure; gained a lot of practical industry knowledge; great vacation policy; fun holiday parties and Town Hall meetings. Ongoing structure to acknowledge others' exemplary contributions in formal or informal presentations.

Cons

Fostered a community of immature, vacuous, catty colleagues. Work/life balance is a company value but not executed in many channels.

Pros

Friendly, knowledgeable, supportive coworkers. Management is generally pretty good. You get to work with all the fun products and learn directly from brand reps. And the customers are there to learn about the products - and you get to talk to them about the best products. If you're excited about Sephora, go apply!

Cons

Hours vary based on the time of the year.
