Pros

The clients were great & tips were amazing! Lots of Drs, lawyers, business man, etc.

Cons

Worst management ever. Corporate & in the salon. Wayyyy too much drama. HR & corporate could have cared less about anything going on. They care what’s going in their bank account. Empty promises, raises are challenge to get, dead end job. They really know how to push the good workers out and keep the toxic employees. You can have all the proof in the world, still don’t care. Working for this place brings out the worst in you. You’re better off doing free haircuts on the street corner. You’ll get wayyy more respect. The pay isn’t great, and they give new stylists more money an hour vs the stylists that have been there years cause they’re ‘desperate’ for people. I can go on and on why to not work here. Find out for yourself tho. Good luck.

Pros

I have enjoyed my time at Boardroom. It is a positive work environment with very supportive management and coworkers. The manager provides a flexible schedule and plenty of responsibilities and opportunities to grow professionally. I have had a great experience with both clients and coworkers!

Cons

Boardroom is great for people that like to stay busy. Since it is a service based business, there will be occasional last minute changes, which can be challenging. Need to be detail oriented, stay calm under pressure, and able to multitask!

Pros

The clients were great for the most part and the tips were good.

Cons

The management is terrible! The manager, causes more drama than anyone else’s. She’s doesn’t keep your info private and confidential. She displays favoritism and lacks professionalism when it comes to her political and religious beliefs. Corp. under pays the stylist and over charges clients. They hire in newer stylists with less experience more then the senior stylists with the clientele. Corp. changes rules and policies so often it becomes difficult to know how to preform at the job. There is little to no perks and the day to day is repetitive. No opportunities for growth or to move up in the company. With the mischievous manager and corp. with frequent change and turn over, this is an unnecessary high stress job. The yearly “raise” is laughable. $1 increase per year as long as you cross off all the criteria’s they push onto you. Don’t waste your time and talent.
