Pros

Over the years I meet some great employees. And a client who took me to my new position.

Cons

NO breaks Cutting hours excessively to keep labor low on the east coast. Clients are ALLLOWED to be rude and disrespectful to the staff because corporate always it. You are threatened with write ups for not selling products. All the good managers are leaving due to corporate. The pay is HORRIBLE They just started giving raises but that is a joke since clienta surveys count towards your raise. Clients write reviews to recieve free services. Tips go missing Horrible stylists are promoted to asst managers then they become store managers when they have no idea what theh are doing. They are rude and disrespectful with tbe shop manager is not around. Nothing happens to them but we would be written up. The district managers could careless what is happening at a shop. The owener worries about things that do not matter but could careless what is really happening. Shop educators are a joke. My shop educator had no idea what they job title meant or what to do at all. If you want to move up in the company. You will have to come in on your own time to work and train for FREE. They do not pay for training. Everything at drybar is about looks. Ever shop is understaffed and they cant get employees to work at drybar.

Pros

Make life long friendships, opportunity to grow from within

Cons

Staff inside the stores work back to back with out a break. Arms, shoulders, hands, and wrists all hurting. Then asked to stay longer and when say no they get told they aren't putting in enough. Labor control is one of the biggest focuses for the company so they have been changing people's time clocks to come in where they need to. Hoping that they don't get caught. No one feels comfortable going to anyone in upper management because they see how close everyone is and how all they do is post pictures of them partying together. So people just leave. There is always opportunity to grow because of how many people quit.
