Very Racist Clients

Pros

I liked the people I worked with.

Cons

Not recommended if you're a black person to work here. You will endure a lot of racism. As Great Clips caters to predominantly white people.

Horrible work environment

Recommend
CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

Was able to technically do what I love doing.

Cons

Management, gossiping, clicky, close minded, extreme micro managing, zero concern for employee rights and unfortunately human rights. Commission decreased suddenly without making any sense. Toxic environment, if there was another salon like this is Marshall, MN the staff would actually have to put client needs first, instead of forcing the clients to work around thier needs. Favoritism, rules only apply to the workers who aren't involved in the gossiping or clique. Doing your job and doing it well does not guarantee any sort of job security. Its the most toxic environment ive ever worked in, 20 years of working in salons and never have i ever experienced this type of toxicity.
