A very fun enviorment
Senior Educator Consultant (Supervisor) (Former Employee) – Nashua, NH – August 21, 2019
If you love make up and recreating art. This job is for you. You become an artist of your own and practically play with make up all day. There are always new products, therefore there's always something new to learn.
Horrible
Fraud Analyst Associate (Former Employee) – San Francisco, CA – August 18, 2019
I was fired for taking breaks as required by law, due to management not discussing an allegation with me.
My manager previously told me my productivity was excellent. The next week I'm informed to not come back to the office. Work is banal. Culture is toxic. Management is incompetent. Advancement is slow to non-existent.

Fun place to work if you are all about makeup and the in things
Color Consultant (Former Employee) – San Antonio, TX – August 17, 2019
I loved working for the company however it was very poor management and a lot of miscommunication that the store I worked for had but other than that I had an amazing time working there because it was what I loved doing
Good company
Facilitator & Color Artist (Former Employee) – Bakersfield, CA – August 16, 2019
Very good company to work for and have under your belt. Pay rate differs from position and artist, so don’t be surprised when u find out everyone is being payed at different rates.
Beautiful Studio , Beautiful People
Cashier/Customer Service (Current Employee) – Brooklyn, NY – August 15, 2019
I just started so I cant say much besides EVERYONE was nice. I was interviewed by two extremely nice people and they made me feel so welcomed. It was more like a conversation then a interview.
Pros
the gratis, discounts and the coworkers
Cons
the hours
I advise no one to come here
Product Consultant (Current Employee) – Monroe, LA – August 15, 2019
I currently still work at the Sephora inside jcpennys in Monroe , Louisiana. We have been through two managers since I’ve been here. We received a new manager who just like the last one has no clue about Sephora’s products. She came in dictating instead of learning. They keep hiring people who don’t want to work. The turn over rate is horrible for management and Beauty Advisors. ZERO chance for advancement! No great benefits! Jcpennys managers don’t like helping us. Your hours are up and down. Once I was scheduled only two days. The only benefit ( is the gratis .
It’s an ok company
Brand Ambassador/Color Consultant (Current Employee) – Winter Park, FL – August 14, 2019
It’s an ok company to work for pros lots of gratis it the really fun part lots of free products but one thing is for sure in order to move up you must be a butt kisser
Productive and Fun
Cashier (Current Employee) – San Francisco, CA and Los Angeles, CA – August 13, 2019
Working at Sephora is a great environment if you want to learn more about cosmetelogy or becoming an esthetician. The leadership is very supporting and encouraging in anything the employee wants to do within the company.
Fun Environment
Product Consultant (Current Employee) – Houston, TX – August 13, 2019
The work environment is fast paced and the customers are always fun but there is no room to grow here. The management does not like to promote within. Its a shame that you can work your hardest and not even be considered for a higher position.
Encouraging beginning to a prosperous career
Beauty Advisor (Current Employee) – Manteca, CA – August 13, 2019
Sephora is a great start if you're interested in sales and cosmetics, but there is little room for advancement within the company and the hours are extremely inconsistent and at times inconvenient for associates. The workplace environment is comfortable, but the stress of selling overwhelms associates and customers, and does not seem genuine at times. The most enjoyable part is being able to meet new people all the time, seeing the joy on their faces when discovering new products and introducing them to techniques to amplify their skills.
Sephora
Beauty Advisor (Former Employee) – Pasadena, TX – August 13, 2019
This was one of my favorite jobs ever. I loved all my customers and my co workers. I just felt my new manager took her anger out on us sometimes. Therefore, I began to get stressed out and no longer enjoyed being there anymore.
Hated working here
Beauty Advisor (Former Employee) – Kennewick, WA – August 13, 2019
Management was not helpful and gave only negative feedback. Employees were mean and rude to you. You can’t ask for days off. Your schedule will continually get changed days before. Not a great place to work.
so so place
OPERATIONS MANAGER (Former Employee) – Charleston, WV – August 12, 2019
had a lot to do with my location. I feel like sephora's in other cities get the REAL sephora experience. Here its the only place to buy high end makeup. when you are the only option people have to shop there not choose to.
Opportunities to Grow
Operations Consultant (Current Employee) – Pasadena, CA 91105 – August 12, 2019
Through Sephora I was able to quickly gain a higher position through leadership. They allow employees room for growth if the employee so wishes to grow with the company.
It was ok
Picker and panther (Former Employee) – Aberdeen, MD – August 11, 2019
The management wasnt very good they messed my pay up and had my social security number wrong .. a typical day at work it was very hot and humid in the warehouse that was the hardest part was trying to stay cool while they want you to work very fast paced and they most enjoyable was honestly when I was clocking out lol
Micromanaged
Manager (Former Employee) – Florida – August 10, 2019
The GM of my Sephora inside Jcpenny was a huge micromanager. He didn’t care to learn all the Sephora culture. I’m just so much happier not being there. I wasn’t given much direction when given projects to do.
Management
Cashier/Sales Associate (Former Employee) – Las Vegas, NV – August 10, 2019
so many managers that don’t stick to there department they try to manage everybody. They’re never on the same page. Very diverse but, also bias everyone is a theft ,but Asians and well mannered white woman in managements eyes. They have favorites that don’t do there job.
My most enjoyable part of my day working at Sephora is being able to help clients come in and discover what makes them smile
Sales Associate (Current Employee) – Bay Shore, NY – August 9, 2019
Work culture in Sephora is such a bright dynamic. Being able to help clients find what there most interested in or discover new products is amazing and fun .
