Pros

I get to work with talented artists, designers, and managers everyday. We assist women in making themselves feel better. I receive recognition of a job well done and coaching when the job could be performed better. I receive education about brands from vendors weekly. Ulta has made me a better manager because they empower me to think on my feet. The world isn't going to just hand you an easy job. To expect that is to start out failing.

Cons

Payroll may be difficult but there is no difference with any other retail company out there. The beauty industry is stressful no matter where you work.

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.
