Pros

Free services, including threading, waxing, sugar, and at times laser. The technicians are also great at they're jobs. Each location gives different vibes.

Cons

No clear job roles. Lack of promotion from within. Integrity is placed on the back burner for the dollar. Complete change is needed.

Pros

Free brow threading I guess

Cons

Everyone in management has no clue what day of the week it is let alone how to spell their own names. Specialists are allowed to be rude to front desk with no consequences but when front desk is rude they are fired or moved. Specialists constantly make racist remarks and management sweeps it under the rug. You will be listed as part time but doing full time hours and dont get benefits or pto. You will be part time but work full time hours and still be expected to pay for waxing services. Specialists are even rude to new specialists that join the company because they’ve been there 100 years and are essentially a gang. Person in charge of marketing does not know what shes doing and constantly has someone else doing her job. Overall a horrible company!!

Pros

The CEO is super involved with the company and you will most likely see her once a month. Birthday and Anniversary celebrations for all employees ; however, they were thinking about stopping this because they think their workers are unappreciative (not true). Room for growth (although you most likely wouldn't want to move up).

Cons

Low wages and cheap with raises. They stopped doing reviews for their employees which means no raises unless you move up in the company. Management is almost non-existent. The company is always short staffed because employees are constantly quitting. Most Estheticians come from a South Asia where the cultural traditions are very strong and its hard for them to convert to American traditions which causes plenty of cultural clashes between estheticians and front desk employees. Unhealthy work environment because of constant arguing. Front desk employees are fairly young, 18-22, while estheticians are older, 30-60 years in age, so the age difference causes constant clashes and arguments. Management absolutely dors not appreciate their employees.
