Pros

The environment is fun and friendly. Comfortable uniforms. fast paced so you make good tips when we are busy.

Cons

you make $9 an hour a a stylist plus tips and that is it. There is an additional commission that can be made but it is very small and hard to obtain and is purely based on your clients decision so its hard to reach commission. no matter how long you work there you do not get a raise and there is no such thing as seniority here. They are really big on watching payroll so your hours fluctuate so much that you have no idea how much you will be making from one week to the next. There are no benefits at all. No sick days. You have a lot of goals that you have to maintain or you are put on probation so there is really no feeling of job security because there is always a threat looming that you are going to loose your job.

Pros

Great hourly pay with tips. Averaged about $38 to $40 an hour. Great starting place. They do offer training. The co-workers were nice at my location. Management does help you with flexible scheduling so if you have children, it works out great.

Cons

Burnout is real. Expected to complete service within an allotted short time. Too many clients come in that want expensive barbershop cuts but want to pay the lowest price (they really shouldn’t even go to sport clips for). Also, way too many clients with long hair wanting full scissor cuts. They won’t turn away clients even if the cuts they ask for are — are not something sport clips does or allows for a lot of time. TV’s get annoying after a while (too loud).
