Pros

Compensation can be competitive, but it comes at the cost of dealing with dysfunctional leadership, organizational instability, and a divisive workplace culture.

Cons

Some former employees advised me against joining, but I felt I needed to experience it firsthand — and unfortunately, I learned the hard way. Culture: The workplace culture is fragmented, with multiple groups and subgroups often working against each other rather than collaborating. I observed instances of unprofessional behavior, including abrasive interactions and, at times, inappropriate comments. There’s a pervasive lack of trust — many employees express dissatisfaction with leadership at various levels, creating a cycle of negativity. DEI efforts seemed misaligned, often fostering cliques rather than genuine inclusion. The environment felt divisive rather than supportive. Work Environment: With the primarily remote workforce, there’s a stronger focus on appearances than productivity. Long-term employees tend to guard tribal knowledge, making it difficult for newcomers to succeed. Asking questions was often met with hostility, which stifled collaboration and growth.

Pros

- The company started out with good intentions I feel, as we have the ability to set our own schedule and working from home is always a plus.

Cons

- As time goes on, more and more have been taken away from stylists. Our scheduling freedom was removed this year, which was a huge reason most people applied for this job. In other part time jobs, you can usually give shifts away or trade with others, but now you have no flexibility and are expected to work max hours every week. - Stylists have not been given a raise in years and instead are capped after you work here for so long. - Seems like the company is heading in a direction for stylists to be taken over by AI, but we'll see! - You are completely controlled by your metrics, which a lot of times you have no control over because of bad inventory, but will be monitored and put on corrective action + eventually fired if your metrics aren't always where the company wants them to be
