Pros

I love the commission scale, and the new methods from the higher ups are so much better than the way the company used to run. They care much more about their employees now. We have a steady flow of walk by clients inside the Walmart, making an ideal location.

Cons

Short staffing because stylists are concerned about working "inside Walmart". The POS system has so much room for improvement, such as the ability to set appointments for future dates-getting rid of the redundancy of the appointment book.
