Great Clips reviews

-Poor base pay (typically minimum wage or slightly higher) -Days are unpredictable, meaning you could have one day that’s extremely busy, then the next with only a few people the whole shift -Understaffed -You will be required to go to other salons to help if they happen to be understaffed -Management gets priority for days off -Roughly 1/3 of the year is unavailable for time off of any kind due to extensive “blackout days/periods” (can be anywhere from a single day to over a month, and last year’s blackout dates totaled up to about 130 days) -The price of the cuts are low, typically meaning tips will be lower, e.i. $2 tip on a $20 cut -You cannot guarantee you will build a clientele due to GC’s business model, nor does GC’s business model and plan support it -Expect long hours, sometimes 11 or more, without a break (per your state’s law) -Potentially multiple open to close shifts per week

Management, gossiping, clicky, close minded, extreme micro managing, zero concern for employee rights and unfortunately human rights. Commission decreased suddenly without making any sense. Toxic environment, if there was another salon like this is Marshall, MN the staff would actually have to put client needs first, instead of forcing the clients to work around thier needs. Favoritism, rules only apply to the workers who aren't involved in the gossiping or clique. Doing your job and doing it well does not guarantee any sort of job security. Its the most toxic environment ive ever worked in, 20 years of working in salons and never have i ever experienced this type of toxicity.
