Pros

-free treatments each month -amazing upper management in my area and always reachable -no experience needed -great co-workers -high turnover rate = moving up in the company fast

Cons

-must work one weekend a week -no time and a half for holidays -double or even triple bookings -sales employees are more valued -no actual sick days, or vacation days its just PTO that is accrued over time, and if you don’t have any you won't get paid -HR is very aggressive and not helpful. In my past experiences, HR is always the kindest and sweetest, except in LaserAway. You will not want to contact them because they WILL bash you down -FMLA is SO HARD TO APPLY FOR! Please do better in this, especially for a company that praises having all women medical staff. -very high turnover rate -nurses' educational input is not valued; we are told to tell everyone they have great results and are candidates for ALMOST ALL THE TREATMENTS. Be prepared to be a good fabricator of the truth. -sales will tell you, “well, make it work” even when there is absolutely no room in the schedule and patients are getting upset because they are waiting for 15/20 mins -scheduling protocols are NOT followed. You will have some days that you are doing 60/80 min laser hair removal treatments back to back with no break except one lunch break. Overall: if you want to get into aesthetics, apply and take the job. Get your experience and leave or move up.

Pros

Competitive pay and strong training for new aesthetic providers. You’ll gain experience quickly because of the high patient volume.

Cons

LaserAway is a sales company disguised as a medical practice. Revenue consistently comes before patient care and provider well-being. Providers are routinely triple booked, making it nearly impossible to give patients the time and attention they deserve. Rushing through consultations and treatments creates unnecessary stress, increases burnout, and can compromise patient safety. Sales consultants have more influence than licensed medical professionals. Treatments are frequently sold before a provider even evaluates the patient, and nurses are often expected to justify or perform services they may not believe are appropriate. Medical opinions are routinely overshadowed by sales goals. The culture prioritizes quotas, memberships, and packages over ethical, patient-centered care. The PTO policy is extremely poor. Full-time employees receive only about 1.5 weeks of PTO per year, yet you’re expected to keep your schedule open seven days a week. You cannot submit unavailability or reliably schedule appointments in advance without using your already limited PTO. Maintaining any work-life balance is unnecessarily difficult.
