      Horrible place to work - Hairstylist Great Clips Employee Review

      Pros

      Tips... And that's about it. Oh, and some coworkers. Otherwise there aren't any. At all. Whatsoever.

      Cons

      Where do I start? The wages suck. The franchisee is a cheapskate and takes form the employees. This franchise is a joke. 12 minutes to cut hair. No raises. Bust your buns daily and it gets very old and very tiring. Managers get fancy trips while us hardworking "lowlife workers" are the reason they got there! Never again...

      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.
