Pros

Free Blowouts Mostly asweome co-workers If you have no scruples, it’s a great place to work.

Cons

5 different general managers in less than 2 years. They discourage taking breaks by not offering them, giving you client after client, overbooking, not scheduling a break, and punishing you if you ask for one, it’s not abnormal to have 9-10 clients in a 6 hour shift. They’ve asked people to work off the clock. Frequent pay issues, checks are wrong, commission & tips missing, dishonest co-workers & managers steal cash & products, they have video evidence and corporate doesn’t do anything about it. If you point out problems to the wrong people (I.E. the people who should fix them) they find a way to suspend you, then never put you back on the schedule, so you can lose your job w/out being fired so DryBar doesn’t have to pay unemployment. Whoever is most desperate for the promotion will get it, b/c desperate people will break laws, treat people badly, and are easily manipulated. They push the stylists to sell their crappy products.

Pros

Good experience to be in the beauty industry if you don't do hair, Good way to network with the community as well

Cons

A little disorganized at time, I think the corporate policies were also a little too script sometimes whnen it came to the way clients had to be charged
