Worth it
Counter Manager (Former Employee) - Kingston upon Thames - 19 July 2022
Really nice place to work even inside Boots. The company value you with all benefits provided but payment is not good. There’s no progression as well.

Fantastic company but reshuffle needed
Beauty Advisor (Former Employee) - England - 1 May 2022
An amazing company however management needs a reshuffle within shop floors. Benefits within the company are great and I would recommend the company to anyone within the industry but be cautious as the turn over is high.

Amazing family feel and support
Beauty Advisor (Former Employee) - Blackburn, Lancashire - 12 April 2022
Management is great. The brand really makes you feel like you are a part of the family and have a great community and culture. There is also good support and training. You learn a lot about makeup and the products they sell. I worked on a rota basis but i was able to have a lot of input and took childcare into consideration. The best makeup brand to work for. You also get lot's of freebies and discounts! The company really looked after staff during covid. A typical day is trying to bring customers in and tracking sales through the day, keeping the store cleaning and tallying up sales at the end. The sales targets can be daunting at first. It is more about sales than beauty. You do not need to be a beauty expert but just need to learn how to use the products. Helps to have a full face of the brands products on too.

It was a fun place to work for, but management was shocking
Makeup Artist (Former Employee) - Canterbury, Kent - 13 February 2022
Everyone is in each other’s pockets, if you’re not friends with the high up managers you have no chance on progressing. One of the worst jobs I have ever had, horrible people.
Pros
Free lunch when in head office
Cons
Everything

Overall the working personnel at L’Oréal.
Warehouse Operative (Former Employee) - Bury - 11 January 2022
Overall the working personnel at L’Oréal were great except for one or two workers that were let’s say, not team players. The management, I have never met such a facist group of a management team and they’re getting away with it. Coming from a manager role myself of over 100 personnel, I feel for the workers but, I’m glad it was only a temporary role for myself.
Pros
Early starts (06:00hrs), average wage
Cons
Facist regime, unpredictable hours, suck-ups were favouritised over hard workers on overtime.

Boring , repetitive and terrible management
Customer Service Advisor (Former Employee) - Brentford, Greater London - 5 January 2022
My summary says it all, terrible management, repetitive, long tiring days. No such this as a work life balance and the job was not outlined properly in its description. Overall stressful and for less than £10 not worth it

I really loved my time with Loreal and only left due to losing hours as a result of a restructure making my salary too low.Management were the best, I’ve never loved a job more than what I did working for Loreal.I’m hoping one day I can come back in a suitable role
