Pros

good money if it is a busy location.

Cons

they do not tell you that when you are hired, you're only hired to train for less than a week. they make you learn how to use their exclusive wax, memorize prewritten scripts, buy red scrubs, and after a few days of hands on training, they decide if they will let you work there. they are slave drivers... only schedule 6 hour shifts so they don't have to give you breaks or offer you insurance. i am not surprised that they are literally always hiring.

Pros

Great coworkers, supportive team environment, loyal clients, and valuable opportunities to develop professional skills.

Cons

I’d like to raise some concerns about communication and fairness. We are asked to communicate everything, yet often our messages go unanswered or are met with a negative attitude. There is also a sense of favoritism in time-off approvals. Last-minute scheduling changes have disrupted my plans due to lack of notice. I’ve been incorrectly scheduled due to miscommunication, and I’ve had intense shifts without reasonable breaks. Additionally, our manager consistently arrives later than anyone, often when clients are waiting to pay, yet she gives attitude to others for minor delays. On top of that, product management is often last-minute. We run out of supplies like products, creams, or paper, and it only gets addressed when urgent, forcing us to scramble between rooms. I’m bringing these concerns forward because I hope for a more consistent, supportive, and equitable work environment for all of us.
