BEAUTY SYSTEMS GROUP

The best part of my job was helping and assisting new and existing profesional salon's sales grow their business by trusting my judgement. They expected me to show up and educate them with all the new products and supplies.I worked a 2 week cycle and signed new accounts as well as servicing exsisting accounts.
I am extremly driven and have been in sales my entire career.I love building relationships and developing ways of generate sales for the salons as well as myself. It was a win/win situation.
I detailed with countless manufactuer reps promoting various promotions.I worked with my boss from time to time,but he knew I was not someone to worry about. 
The hardest part of the job was if the competition took one of my products out of the salon. 
The best part was cold calling and signing up new accounts with large orders.

Upper management is awful. They are running the dc into the ground and then some. There is no accountability within them. Fingers are pointed at associates and associates are told to lie to cover management with corporate. Members are allowed to threaten the lives of others and still work in the same department with little to no action from management or hr. People who actually do their jobs are targeted by upper management. Poor and hostile work environment throughout the entire DC with no action. Work life balance is non existent and the entire atmosphere makes every employee miserable. Pay is horrible and employees are treated, and told, that they do not matter and are just a number. The warehouse needs to be wiped clean and rebuilt from the ground up. 

I highly recommend Beauty Systems Group. The pay was not the highest but I loved the culture. I started as a Customer Service Rep which primarily takes orders from salon's for professional products like hair color, shampoo/conditioner, etc. which I really didn't mind but the pay was low. Then I was promoted to a Customer Service Coach which I loved. Basically I assisted Customer Service reps when they needed help and various other tasks like watching the call queue, processing special orders and I got to travel and work at beauty trade shows which was amazing. The only reason that I left the company was because I was about to be laid off because the company relocated from Ohio to Texas to Sally Beauty's home office.

Not supportive of employees.  The directors give a good speech but does not really advocate.  They hired me from outside to manage a location, kept me bouncing around 4 different places until they could "train" me.  I was given a book with videos for 2 days,  then a week with another book and videos. No actual training.  Told I had flexible hours, but given so many required work situations that flexibility was negated.  In the end after 20 years in management, they attempted to inform me that I had no management skills...  Really? When I've been in management/supervisory roles 20 plus years.  
To me it appeared as if they rewarded drones but disregarded progression and free thinking.   Very rural thinking for people in the beauty industry.

This is a great place to work if you are not the breadwinner and need a second income for your family. BSG offers a great benefits package with retirement and profit sharing. If you are a commissioned sales rep you will enjoy a great work life balance, however you will work long hours competing against Cosmoprof stores for your clients business. An average sales rep makes about $35k in commission annually. There are realistic goals and a lot of manufacture bonuses that make up your income.

Pros: Access to pro beauty products and tools via generous discount and gratis; you learn a lot about different lines from coworkers and customers, which is great for a newly licensed cosmetologist, who feels like a kid working in a candy store. Job itself is easy and fun. Pay largely depends on location.
Cons: Chronically low inventory leading to frustrated shoppers; poor company-wide scheduling practices to address chronic understaffing lead to burnout, creating a never-ending cycle; unprofessional management; no training or product knowledge from reps due to post-covid issues.

What is the best part of working at the company?
All the customers and products we get for free from the vendors 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Not being able to fill customer orders because of the low stock level or inventory says we have 6 and there’s only 1 item

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
 I think its great ,
Great communication among the district stores

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Wonderful, like looking at what’s new and helping the customers, I’ve gotten to know

Even after going above and beyond for the company I wad looked over when applying for a district manager position.  I guess 15 yrs of being a manager and trainer for the company didn't mean anything.  They hired from outside the company.  Not only did they do that once but twice for the district manager position.  So I felt I wasn't going to advance from where I was.  I felt totally unappreciated in my efforts for the 15 yrs I spent there.

It definitely had its issues, but overall, it wasn’t a bad place to work. Mainly some of the people made it difficult and stressful. Attitudes and stupid people. I do miss it, though. Long hours, so decent paychecks with overtime, but sometimes overtime was communicated late (Saturday on Friday...etc) may have changed now, they recently fired the warehouse and operations managers, and laid off 350 in corporate.

Was a fun company to work for. Great benefits and my direct managers were always supportive and eager to hear my ideas. I did not agree with the negative attitude from my Territory Manager. Instead of backing my staff and I with getting more mirrors for security, he was extremely negative and almost passive when it came to theft. Very disappointing. In fact, he never worked at the store level and he rarely saw eye to eye with me as a manager and my District Manager when it came to in-store operations.
