Pros

Being able to work on many different types of clients, helping you further your knowledge of hair. Paid training when hired. Insurance for full time employees.

Cons

Poor pay/unfair pay (being paid less than a new employee with less experience/slower cut times/less product sales), poor communication, revolving door- new employees every week not being given proper training or being trained by coworkers instead of management. Commissions are minimum and not competitive at all. 15 minute haircuts. Verbal punishment/abuse by upper management.

Because each salon is independently owned and operated, your franchisee would be the best person to address your concerns. Please contact them directly regarding any issues with employment.
