Pros

Independent work, a lot of organizing if you like that, if you work overnights/after close you can listen to music, and very chill job

Cons

Hours may not be enough like we talking they would schedule you for 3-4 hours. Then a lot of coworkers complained how management had favorites and they would prioritize scheduling them more. also pay may not be worth it especially if you working less than 25 hours a week. May even send you back home if they running out of their budget even after you only worked like two hours

Pros

Pay and benefits are generous

Cons

Zero work life balance. Store hours consistently being cut. They like the motto, “do more with less”.

Pros

If you like helping people find skincare and makeup that suits them, it's a nice place to be--plus you get to take home some products for free every once in a while as gratis!

Cons

Your Ulta credit card is in danger of being heavily used--whoops! Also, even if you really know your stuff and are in the middle of speaking with customers, if they need someone at the register, they will replace you on the floor with a Prestige Beauty Advisor, which was always super disappointing. Especially if you've already established rapport with the guest and their cart is getting full. Also, customers have shared feeling racially profiled, being closely followed. Not cool. Something to keep in mind so you don't accidentally do that if you're part of the team.
