Pros

Hourly wage is great especially when you’re not having a busy day. Productivity for more haircuts per hour adds to your paycheck. Had a great clientele at my old location. Can be a fun environment depending who you work with

Cons

Time off is rotated and not guaranteed. You will work weekends. They expect everyone to be full time and if you can’t be then they don’t work with you on your schedule. I have seen people deducted hours painfully low (how are people going to provide for their lives when hours are cut) as punishment. Micromanaging where it isn’t needed. If there is a problem with staff they are more loyal to whoever has been there longer or has better numbers. You will be a work horse. You can be replaced instantly and they are not afraid to let you know that. Hours are grueling.
