Pros

My coworkers have become my family! I have worked for the company for going on 9 years now at multiple stores. I have made life long friends at each one of those stores! The owners and managers truly live by the values that this company stands behind. Not a week goes by that i do not feel appreciated and valued for my part in my stores performance. The pay is amazing and what is even better is that with this pay structure you are really in control of what you make. They have great benefits and you can’t beat 2 weeks paid vacation after being there 1 year; and 3 weeks after being there 5 years! Not to mention what hairdresser wouldn’t kill to wear tennis shoes to work everyday!!

Cons

Like any other hairdressing job you do have to work weekends; and our company is open 7 days which means at times Sunday’s as well. That being said that is one of the things that sets us aside from the “traditional” barber shop. Our flexible hours do cater to the clients walking in the door which gives us more money making chances!! We close early on Saturdays and sundays so it isn’t terrible to work. And we are closed all major holidays which I means me being the family oriented person I am I get to spend those times with my loved ones.

Pros

Health Insurance and 401k definitely help. A lot of hairdressers are moms and some of them single moms, so these benefits help a lot! My team leader and area manager are amazing at helping and keeping me feeling good about how I'm doing.

Cons

none, I have to say, if you're willing to work and make something of yourself and want to work for a great company that will recognize that. This is the place to be!

Pros

No pros beside it being a paycheck

Cons

Wasn’t allowed to have colored hair as a stylist, franchise owners in Arizona push their conservative beliefs on employees, didn’t even allow facial piercings, as time goes by and I’m working at an amazing salon and being treated for what I’m worth, being valued and paid an actual living wage, being allowed to express my individuality, being able to finally find somewhere where I’ve been able to blossom in my 8 years of hairdressing, I’m realizing just how awfully sport clips treats their employees, absolute joke of a wage for the productivity, work, and hours they expect, started here fresh out of beauty school and was constantly undermined, a lot of workplace bullying, favoritism, outcasting stylists that didn’t fit the perfect Sportclips “ideal.” Unless you want to be a slave to Sportclips, and constantly told cut faster cut faster sell more sell more and creating an uncomfortable experience for the stylist and client, making it feel like a sales job, it’s such an outdated way to operate, to hit numbers for the commission you’d have to sell like a car seller and do 10-15 minute haircuts for hours on end. don’t work here. Not to mention the average tip clients leave is 5-7 while you get a minimum wage hourly. Just a spit in the face.
