      Pros

      Everyone's super friendly and helpful, my boss really went out of her way to get me hired and helped me a lot to get more comfortable in the salon and how the salon does everything.

      Cons

      I don't think there are any cons that I can think of. Everything's pretty simple and easy going. It's fast paced and the system is user friendly.

      We are sorry you had this experience with your manager. Because each salon is independently owned and operated, the best person to address your comments would be the franchisee. If you would like follow up, please email Jeanne@greatclips.com with the salon location where you were employed and details. We will forward it to the franchisee. Thank you.

      Pros

      Always busy, no sitting around being bored Built in clientele, no need to recruit No appointments, means not losing money with a no-show No hair coloring, for those who perfer the barbering side. Clip Notes system, makes it easy to determine desired haircut Great Clips sponsors a lot of programs and charities, including free haircuts for veterans on veterans day, and free haircuts for those battling cancer Management is flexible with requesting time off Paid holidays (3 a year) Tips

      Cons

      Terrible pay, minimum wage without raises Open 7 days a week Open very late on weekdays Generally set schedules are not accepted Schedule changes every week Unrealistic expectations (13-17 minute haircuts, expect to earn $35+/hr for the shop while you only get paid minimum wage)
