Pros

Good pay. Some Good People. Decent Location. OK Benefits.

Cons

HORRIBLE Upper Management. Bad Leadership. No Raises. No Bonuses Only Except for Upper Management. Culture is a FARCE; Only there for Appearances. Supervisors Set You Up for Failure. HIGH ATTRITION. Fires GOOD/HARD working people for the good of the business.

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).
