Pros

Free makeup aka gratis, learn makeup tips

Cons

The girls are catty, and the management calls everyone hun even if they are saying something degrading. Ex// Once I wore nude lipstick but it was not highly visible and the manager said "Hun, I know you're wearing nude lipstick but it doesn't look like you should be working here. Go and change your lipstick." in front of other coworkers. It was very embarrassing to get called out like that but it was the normal and happened many times. The management used a lot of favoritism.

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.
