Pros

Product & waxing discounts, great training program, supportive trainers, good franchisee (if you're lucky)

Cons

High expectations for low pay. I understand they're trying to "brand" themselves but the high standards in customer service and appearance isn't worth the $9-$10 per week. If you're looking for a part time job and willing to settle for less than what you're worth or feel defeated and need money, go for it (been there done that) but never give up on yourself and push for a better job with better pay if you can. It's not your fault if the company has a high turnover rate because at the end of the day, corporate makes the most money and that's all they'll care about.

Pros

Great coworkers, supportive team environment, loyal clients, and valuable opportunities to develop professional skills.

Cons

I’d like to raise some concerns about communication and fairness. We are asked to communicate everything, yet often our messages go unanswered or are met with a negative attitude. There is also a sense of favoritism in time-off approvals. Last-minute scheduling changes have disrupted my plans due to lack of notice. I’ve been incorrectly scheduled due to miscommunication, and I’ve had intense shifts without reasonable breaks. Additionally, our manager consistently arrives later than anyone, often when clients are waiting to pay, yet she gives attitude to others for minor delays. On top of that, product management is often last-minute. We run out of supplies like products, creams, or paper, and it only gets addressed when urgent, forcing us to scramble between rooms. I’m bringing these concerns forward because I hope for a more consistent, supportive, and equitable work environment for all of us.
