Pros
Fast paced, usually busy, training opportunities.
Cons
Hires anyone and everyone and hopes one sticks which is rare given the drug use that runs rampant through this place. Diversity is here - with normal folks with families and then overrun by drug addicted meth heads with sharp objects

Pros
This is a good place to work if you're just starting out in the industry. Depending on location, the staff are mostly helpful depending on what mood they're in. They can be patient when teaching and quite encouraging to newcomers. There is the potential to earn a decent amount in tips if it's busy. It is a set schedule and management tried their best to work with staff for work life balance. Case by case basis.
Cons
If you're an experienced stylist/barber, this may not be the place for you. Starting pay is rather pathetic, especially in today's economic climate. Business can be very slow at times, too, which makes it difficult to earn commission and better tips. They will often hire someone with 1 year of experience and pay them the same amount, if not more, as someone whose been doing it for 15 years, as an example. Raises are rare and meager, based on things like commission earnings, which isn't possible to achieve if it's a slow season or not a busy location. Therefore, earning more money is highly unlikely. Communication from management is extremely poor. Performance reviews are nonexistent, for an employee to know where they need to improve would be on them to approach management and ask. Management seems to dodge sincerity and team meetings altogether, perferring secrecy to open honesty.
