Pros

None that are available. I have a very strong work ethic and this was by far THE WORST work experience of my working years! I will never recommend anyone to work here or get their hair cut at GreatClips especially in Corvallis.

Cons

No hairstylist can give a professional looking haircut to anyone in less than 12 minutes. It is about listening to the clients needs and going beyond their expectations. it is not about chopping them up, and sending them out the door so you can make more money. It's about meeting peoples needs and Great Clips has no clue how to do that!

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.
