Pros

I have been a stylist for 12 years and I have worked in commission salons and rental. I can tell you I have never made as much money working anywhere as I have working at great clips. Not only that great clips has opportunity to grow and move up. Even jobs that take you off of the cutting floor ( if that's what you want) like trainers or marketing jobs. I have worked for great clips for 6 years now and I'll never leave. I love great clips and great clips makes me feel loved ( well appreciated at least lol)

Cons

They keep chocolate in the training center all ways so if your watching your weight it's really hard to resist. Lol. Seriously though that's the only con I can think of.

Cons

Haircutting exclusive so if you enjoy other services in the industry (chemicals, waxing, updo styling) this is not the place Franchised salons, so salons are ran differently.
