Pros

Great pay, amazing tips, laid back work environment, always busy because of trusted name. Most managers will work with you on scheduling. Free training that you get paid for. Health benefits, paid vacation, hourly plus two types of commission. You get out what you put in. Team environment..in most salons it's a very cut throat every man for himself type environment. At sport clips every one is willing to help and pitch in.

Cons

If you have visible piercings or tattoos, be prepared to take them out and cover them up. Only natural hair colors. Always have to have your hair and make up done. Very strict system that you must follow to keep your job. There is a certain way to greet the client, set up your station, certain way to cut the hair, and how to wash it. There is even a certain way you have to talk to the client. If you can't comply then you're out the door.

Pros

Pay, schedule flexibility, growth opportunities, company events, benefits

Cons

The pay is excellent as long as you’re performance is strong and especially if your flexible with your schedule and full time. But if you’re not a good performer or super part time, this might not be the best place for you.

Pros

Flexible schedule and decent pay.

Cons

Team leader claimed to care about his team, but only cared about a few! Team leader cared more about employees, causing problems than the employees doing their job! Team leader got teary-eyed when an employee needed to be let go for being aggressive with another stylist! Team leader refused to pay out vacation time to an employee who quit, stating that it wasn’t policy and had never done before, employee who quit showed proof that it had been done before and team leader still refused to pay out vacation. Very few policy and procedures are followed per Sport Clips handbook, 100% would not recommend working for Sport Clips, especially at this location. Well hourly pay is decent, bonus on any level is nearly impossible, especially as a manager! As a stylist, you have to hit all three metrics to bonus at all, and as a manager, you yourself have to hit all the metrics, and you have to have at least one stylist who hits their metrics as well.
