Pros

Moneys good and usually pretty busy.

Cons

The owners are extremely cheap and give you no pay raises for advancement. They make you come for a meeting every week. You have no choice in hours or days off so your life is this job, dont ever expect to get any time off. The owner also waxes but on like 3 day and take time off whenever she wants. She is also extremely fake talks crap about all her employees and half quit on bad terms. There's not enough employees and I feel the business is doomed to fail. They also blame you for slow days and expect you to go out in rain and the night to get people to come in. The wax is great sometimes and other times it's weird and takes skin up or hold to much heat. The air conditioning was broke all summer in 100 degree temperatures and is still broke! Sales is demanding which is typical but they scold you about it.

Pros

They give you paid training and they have christmas parties. The people you work with are really nice.

Cons

You have to wear the ugliest red scrubs ever, the pay is awful and you are getting totally ripped off, they go through management quickly, and the people who owned my location when I worked there were grotesque. The company is so greedy, you make them over $160 an hour, they pay you around $9 an hour. It is soul sucking.

Pros

The best part of working here was the girls I got to work with everyday and my clients. Our shifts were great, only six hours a day.

Cons

Where do I begin? If you enjoy working every night, weekend, and Holliday and are okay with making a very small commission (5%) and being capped at an hourly rate of $10 an hour with no sick days, no insurance, no retirement, no sort of benefits at all then this is the job for you. However corporate does not care about any employee or center itself.
