Pros

If you have timing down, good opportunity for tips.

Cons

Minimum wage and you have to rely on their "bonus system" to make a living ($1-6 more/hour depending how much you do). They will rather force you out of your job by not giving you hours for 2 weeks rather than firing you, when you ask why you don't have hours you'll get "Sorry, head office cut the stores hours, we just don't have them for you" but when you go in to pick up your stuff they'll have hired someone else. I was never given official notice that I was let go, nor was I ever talked to, to have received any warnings.

Recession-proof, yet not a "career"

Pros

You are protected against things that may go on in a privately-owned salon. Cuts only- no color, highlighting, perms, etc. (Like a barbershop) Hourly pay- even if you are not busy, you still get paid. Easy to get a job here.

Cons

Training all-together (technical, company, etc.) lacks a bit. Commission is difficult to achieve, feel like numbers are pushed to benefit owner instead of stylist. BLACK-OUT PERIODS!! Stylists are not allowed to take time off during "black-out" periods ex: the week before and after Christmas, New Years, Easter etc. Clearly not a company that values stylists' ability to spend time with their families. Benefits are offered, but impossible to afford.
