Not paid enough for the work expected. - Anonymous employee Sephora Employee Review

Hours are bad. I work part time, and they will spread your hours thin to keep from having to pay you overtime. I once worked 5 days in a week, each shift being roughly 4-5 hours. that pay check I made as much as when I was working 2 days a week, each full 9 hr shifts. Also, they sometimes have these shifts called oncall shifts, which usually mean that you may or may not work the last couple of hours of your scheduled shift, depending on business. The difference between a 7 hr shift and a 9 hr shift feels drastically different when you are constantly on your feet and dealing with badgering entitled customers all day. And you don't know whether or not your are staying until your potential last hour. Speaking of shifts, they sometime push your lunch/your 10 much later, because they didn't not ensure to have enough people to relieve each other for their proper breaks. Most of the time it's just a skeleton crew working. We do quite a bit of skill practice at our store, and if you are terrible with acting these are excruciating. Management are always running around with different ideas, I'll get a notion that doing x is ok, and the opposite from another manager. They're not on the same page.
