Pros

it's a block from my house.. Gratis, but then again salon employees don't get gratis. if you have a lot of clientele its not a bad place to be.

Cons

.every time you are about to level jump they change your schedule so you lose clients, this cuts your hours so every couple of months you have to completely rebuild, knowing that as soon as you have you're going to lose all of your hours and clientele. getting cussed at by management makes my day! we have our clients sign wavers, this is completely redundant because the minute they complain management offers them a refund with out even checking to see if a waiver was signed, or if anything was wrong. i was accused of stealing hours once because i had a client who rescheduled a few times in one week. my hours dropped drastically when my manager found out i was pregnant. can't remember my last 15 minute break or the last lunch that i didn't clock out and then work right through.

Pros

Gratis There are good hard working people that want to do well. I am still there (barely) because I haven’t completely given up that things will be handled/addressed correctly for those not aligned with company vision and expectations. However after 5 years of inaction it’s hard to believe that positive change will actually and maybe just maybe Myself and others that are dedicatedI will be recognized vs taken for granted.

Cons

No furthering development Keep toxic (leaders especially) allowing unacceptable behavior conduct and violation of company code Communication is very poor…it’s inconsistent,For example managers are not provided with direct email accounts so it’s a community email box. This causes a large amount of information to be read by the wrong audience and is not communicated if read by the wrong leader
