Pros

- depending on your team and manager it can be a great work atmosphere - great discounts - you get knowledge about products - great job if you love anything to do with cosmetology

Cons

- if you end up with a terrible team! You always have to pick up the slack and the managers do nothing about it - definitely underpaid for all the work you do especially if you are always having to pick up someone else’s slack - usually flexible but if you have a unreliable team be prepared to be on call for someone not showing up for their shift - company doesn’t seem to care for their employees at all for all the work they do and put up with!

Pros

My store manager and team were wonderful! If you make the right moves you can move up the ladder reasonably quickly,

Cons

You can move up the ladder quickly because turnover is so high. Management will lie to you and tell you whatever you want to hear to keep you from leaving. Your experience is entirely dependent on who your store manager is and if they are willing to advocate for you. District management does not care about employees.
