Pros

Guests are amazing, and fantastic people (99.9%)

Cons

Upper management messes with booking times for services, allowes manager to bully staff, belittle and be rude and ignorant. The RL bullies, belittles, and back stabbs the stylists. More worried about $$$$ than the environment and getting along of staff. Minimum only.... making commission is impossible.
