Cons
There are many cons working at Removery for laser techs. • Laser techs have to do 100x more work than sales consultants. • Taking a client, doing the treatment, and charting the treatment records in 15 minutes is ridiculous. It’s even more ridiculous when sales consultants can run errands, grocery shop, and get beauty treatments done during work hours and leave early every single day while the laser tech is taking clients back to back all day every day. That gets really old. •There’s very high turn over for laser techs because of the work load. Laser techs are “reviewed” AKA micromanaged monthly by the clinical team. You will also have mandatory meetings, and MANY mandatory tests and assignments that you have to get done even though you’re 100% booked with clients all day long. Don’t even get me started on “guaranteed posts.” •Tips aren’t allowed even if you’re not a medical provider. •Honestly, I think the sales consultant position would be a pretty good gig, as they quite literally get paid to do nothing all day. •It was very rare to ever get a lunch break. •Charting and pre charting takes time. I don’t think it’s ethical or safe to treat 20+ people in a day. When you’re that over worked you will make careless mistakes. I am not someone who is ok with making a mistake with a laser on a human being. I had anxiety about hurting clients and was told “who cares if you hurt someone.” • You will only have 1 or 2 other coworkers that you work with every day. • People that aren’t doing their job and being a poor employee will not get in trouble. •No problems are ever solved. Management will just put a meeting on the calendar to talk, but concerns will never actually be addressed. •The uncapped bonus structure was taken away so people are making thousands of dollars less per year •There’s no commission for treatments. So you could be treating 20-30 per day, while a laser tech in another studio is treating 1-3 people per day, and you’re still getting paid the same, even though you’re working 20x harder. •You have to treat same day consultations on top of all of your regular clients that you are treating that day •Very cliquey, immature and unprofessional people in the company •Money is the main goal. Not safe and good treatments. •Long hours. You’re there for 10 hours on weekdays and you have to work Saturdays.
