Pros

Immediate clientele, guaranteed hourly base pay, vacation time. Corporate is wonderful for support and advice to management. Company picnics are nice.

Cons

Pay is low when considering how hard stylists and managers actually work. If in management no real days off, phone calls all the time even on off days. Work on some holidays when other salons are closed which isn't fair to the employee. Work just about every single weekend if you're a full time employee, which it isn't fair that part time employees aren't expected to do the same. Sometimes they promote the wrong people. You get treated like any other retail worker which isn't fair because we spend tens of thousands of dollars in order on our education, so it's not fair to treat us like we are the same as retail employees you'd find at the mall; we invested time and money to join this industry and should be treated with respect and gratitude...we are not retail workers we are professionals. No health insurance or sick days! Long hours, sometimes you will work 10-14 days without a day off. Over worked and underpaid. Micromanagement is a nightmare.

Pros

The store had been updated and and looked fantastic. The opportunity to make as much money as possible was within reach so long as you followed GreatClips guidelines for haircutting.

Cons

They had a huge turnover with Managment at that store. The staff was difficult to work with and it was hard to keep morale up due to the turnover in their management.
