Great place to start a career

Indeed featured review

The most useful review selected by Indeed
L’Oreal is a truly incredible school that will open so many doors for you. Work life balance is not great, lots of pressure. But if you can handle it, great place to work. People are passionate and fun to work with.

Great place to work

I worked there for a year and so far it’s tje best compnay I’ve worked for. Since L’Oreal is a big company, you get all the benefits right away. Creative workplace and you have the freedom to implement all those ideas.

Fun but can be tiring

It's retail so it will always have its cons, but overall not so bad and pretty good. Not good hours though. Good if you have knowledge of beauty industry and how sephora works

Amazing work place

A great retail environment with many perks and great education on skin care. A lovely team that continues to build and work together with a focus on customer and luxury service

Fun, laid back place

The company has a great culture, higher ups are so personable and care. Support in movement within is great, constant product knowledge. Bonus structure is really nice (when you make the months goal).Downside, the company is very last minute with things, and trying to get time off is difficult. Also, for a luxury brand they should pay higher than minimum wage. It’s difficult to make the monthly goals when they keep making them more and more.

Great culture

Great culture, but certain departments work incredibly hard. If you love executional marketing, it's for you.Most of the jobs are in Montreal. Downtown office. Lots of room to grow and get promoted, especially in marketing. You get to work with various brands, from derma, hair, makeup.

Pros

Culture, events, always something going on.

Cons

Long hours, stress over mundane situations.

Interesting place to work

Perfect place for a young professional willing to add a valuable line on its resume. Take into consideration the crazy hours but the learning worth it.

Meh

Pros: most of the people working are very kind, gratis is very generous, relatively chill atmosphere Cons: work uniform being a hot non breathable lab coat, sales targets not always being realistic, unpredictable inventory shipments. Head office and some members of management not understanding of mental health struggles.

No room to grow

The brand does put a lot of focus on employee education of product and customer service. However retail is sales driven in nature, so very stressful to meet monthly target. Not much room to grow once you are in management. Expect to have no work life balance.

Productive meetings

This was one of my best careers. I enjoyed the facilitation and presentations with my peers. It’s unfortunate that at that time that I decided to leave it was due to unforeseen personal circumstances that was out of my control. Would highly recommend this company.

Pros

Flexibility with scheduling and managing my own schedule

Cons

Long hours and warehouse work involved

Great for learning and advancing in career with other companies

Provides great training opportunities. Very young teams who are looking to advance their own careers. Difficult to get promoted if not from Quebec and do not speak french as a first language

Pros

Training

Cons

Long hours, bias

extremely fast paced

I work at the l'oreal beauty sale and this job is extremely fast paced, the team is amazing and very friendly and you get an amazing employee discount. You need to be extremely patient and be great at multitasking to be able to work there. You also need some good work shoes as you will be on your feet 90% of the time.

Pros

amazing discount

Cons

long periods standing

Great place to work

Sound management, motivating commission structure, and a great place to meet interesting people. Hours can get hectic during the holidays but the volume of work makes up for it.

Travail sous pression

Ne disent pas clairement se qu'ils offrent et leur réelle objectif. Travail temps plein que pour de courtes périodes et obtenir sa permanence impossible si vous ne connaissez quelqu'un bien placé dans l'entreprise. Taux horaire véritablement compétitif.

Pros

Taux horaire

Cons

Travail sur appel

Amazing experience

The company has a strong culture of learning and development, with opportunities for interns to learn from experienced professionals and develop their skills. Interns are often given meaningful projects and responsibilities, which can help them to gain valuable experience and make significant contributions to the company.In addition, L'Oreal is known for its supportive and inclusive culture, where diversity is celebrated and everyone is encouraged to bring their whole selves to work. Interns have reported feeling like they were part of a team and that their contributions were valued, which can be a very positive experience for those who are just starting out in their careers.

Stressful environment

It’s very stressful, the more you do, the more they ask to take on.The process of getting promoted is very opaque, it’s handed out like cookies to people they like, you never know when a position is open, you only find out after it’s officially filled.
