Pros

Awesome location, it's a good job for college students or recent high school graduates or people that don't have to pay rent/bills.

Cons

Scripted sales pitches with super-pushy tactics. Must ask every guest if they want to purchase a wax package, even if that guests has been asked every time they've come in before. Little pay, you have to meet your personal sales quota in order to get your comission! If you don't then you won't get any of your comission and the schedule changes too much with very little notice. Lack of management/management turn-overs.

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.
