Pros
The TRAINING IS ABSOLUTLEY AMAZING!!! I love the traveling oppurtunities I have had with Sephora. I have also learned great deal of information. I am so happy Sephora invest so much into training it's employees. Please don't ever stop this. This has only made my passion grow. I believe this company has a Great Concept about training and the rewards it gives it's clients. Salary is good, the perks are Great. The teamwork with it's Brands Awesome! I love that this company allows it's clients to try products as much as they do. I hope they read this website.
Cons
However there are downfalls. Sr Mgmnt is a big one. I truly believe these people have good intentions. However it falls through the cracks. I have had wonderful oppurtunites traveling with this company and have met some great people. I have heard good things but I have heard some real bad things. There seems to be a lot of Sr Mgmnt abusing their power. I do not think it is fair to hire your friends or previous employees IF this is not the field for them. I believe in this career you have to have a passion to be successful. Also you cannot have a "Do as I say, not as I do" attitude and I have seen this a lot!! This goes against THE SEPHORA VALUES!! I don't speak out because I have seen what happens when you do. And it has been done to me. Not only does this happen at store level but also at the corporate office. It seems as if The Values do not pertain there. I have heard of people who have talked to corporate and have not been treated well at all. Sometimes it seems as though the customer is way more important then your own employees. You have to have an equal balance. It seems as though the training with management is not good either. You can tell for who this a career and who this is just a job. It shows and it reflects towards your staff.
