Pros

benefits are good, they offer medical and 401k after a few months. Hours aren't terrible. Location was good and pay was fair.

Cons

Management is decieving and operations and procedures are taught overkill. I was not happy with the management style of the salon or the lack of supervision - I witnessed crooked cuts and bleeding foils in my first hour.
