      Pros

      Very busy, lots of opportunity to take cuts, many of the customers are friendly and pleasant. Not too hard to make productivity bonus. Frequent contests

      Cons

      Low tips, Management fraternizes with favorite employees outside work. Clickish behavior amongst many stylists. Most smoke and get paid to do it leaving only one stylist on the floor to do everything. Miscommunication on pay from management regarding full time status vs restricted. Longggg hours. Many customers tip under 5$ , lots of skin fades and beard trims. Too many discounts. Lots of unnecessary mandatory “training” classes This location is 8-8, no work life balance time requests off are forgotten leaving the stylist to feel responsible, need to cover shift if you get sick

      Pros

      Flexible schedules, 401k, health, & dental benefits, bonuses (based on salon performance, base wage with poetional to hit commission on service & product sales, fun friendly & welcoming environment for employees/customers, continuing education for growth in the industry, professional career growth with Great Clips (depending upon your franchise)

      Cons

      Haircutting exclusive so if you enjoy other services in the industry (chemicals, waxing, updo styling) this is not the place Franchised salons, so salons are ran differently.
