Pros

Clients, flexible schedule, decent pay, fast paced, co-workers

Cons

it's a sales job, the focus is on your ability to sell products and services, and to do as many haircuts as fast as you can. The continual badgering about numbers has ruined the good parts of the job. They want you to come to work even when you are sick as a dog. You get your co-workers sick and your clients. If you have to miss for any reason you don't get any commissions for that pay period.

Thank you for your input and time at Sport Clips. I am sorry to hear that you have had a bad experience. Have you discussed your concerns with your manager, store owner or coach? It might be helpful to clear up any misunderstandings or at least be heard. You did not provide a location, so I am unable to share your feedback directly. Feel free to connect offline at contact.us@sportclips.com. As a company (Franchisor/Corporation) we do provide guidelines to ensure consistency and set each team member up for success. I think the message can get diluted as it is communicated, and resulting in a team member feeling undervalued, like just a number, etc. Sport Clips standards goals and values can be seen throughout the company in our support center, in our stores and in our communities. It saddens me to see that this is not your experience.

Pros

Pay, schedule flexibility, growth opportunities, company events, benefits

Cons

The pay is excellent as long as you’re performance is strong and especially if your flexible with your schedule and full time. But if you’re not a good performer or super part time, this might not be the best place for you.

Pros

Great hourly pay with tips. Averaged about $38 to $40 an hour. Great starting place. They do offer training. The co-workers were nice at my location. Management does help you with flexible scheduling so if you have children, it works out great.

Cons

Burnout is real. Expected to complete service within an allotted short time. Too many clients come in that want expensive barbershop cuts but want to pay the lowest price (they really shouldn’t even go to sport clips for). Also, way too many clients with long hair wanting full scissor cuts. They won’t turn away clients even if the cuts they ask for are — are not something sport clips does or allows for a lot of time. TV’s get annoying after a while (too loud).
