Pros

some light training, getting to learn about brands, being around beauty products all day, free gratis.

Cons

harder to move up in smaller locations, one of the lowest paid makeup jobs, retail job so being a freelance makeup artist is almost impossible since you need to be available nights/ weekends.

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.
