Pros

I interned at SB for 6 months. I was pleased I got paid for this internship ($11 an hour), got credit at my university, good location, and I did make a few really great friends!

Cons

Not a great learning environment, no communication (all done on slack, an online database, where employees message one another even though everyone sat IN THE SAME ROOM!), no one gets free goods, and even if you do, quality of their products is horrible (I did sneak some stuff in and I actually gave it away- DOS makeup is crap!). CEO Mariyah is very rude and found her to be a phony, doesn't know what's going on in her own office. They had so many backorders and were actually losing subscribers, but she did NOT CARE- EVERYTHING WAS A MESS. Also, turnover rate was off the roof- at least TEN people quit or were fired within 6-8 months. AVOID THIS COMPANY! I WOULD NEVER GO BACK, EVEN WITH A RAISE!!!! I don't even think they will last- I give them ONE YEAR before they go out of business!!!!!

Pros

- unstoppable growth which is fun to be a part of - international team full of really smart people you can learn from - transparent internal communication on company finances - nice perks (free fragrance!)

Cons

- a culture of straight talk, works for me, but may not be for everyone - limited opportunities to see your colleagues in a remote, global environment

Pros

- Remote work - Pay was market rate - Some great employees, but managers are slave owners and quietly know it

Cons

- Deceptive leadership that uses AI and Mysticism to manifest her will on her employees due to Napoleonic egotism. - Executive leadership out of touch, and preys on customer's wallets so they can rubberstamp profit margins and keep it rolling every month. - Makes +12m a month selling vials of perfume and exploits Russia and Ukrainian employees. - Teams are encouraged to poach ideas and strategies for their own based out of fear of being fired.
