Pros

Great place to start out. They have paid continuous training along with free product knowledge classes. Very clean and they consider accurate timing for cleaning and sanitizing in between clients which most places don’t.

Cons

These really depend on your team leader but for me I felt conflicted hearing my team leader gossip about other employees. She would make promises to employees in person but later tell me to be the one to break the news that their wishes could not be fulfilled despite already being promised. Lack of integrity

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).
