Great Clips and similar companies CEOs
What employees say about Great Clips's competitors
pros: only doing haircuts & shampoos primarily. some style services, but they are rare.
the hours are awful. corporate refuses to get with the times and realize salons should not be an open 7-days a week industry. stylists do need to be available for clients when clients are available, but there should be a trade off of the salon being closed 1-2 days/week. traditional salons/barber shops are closed Sunday and Monday, this is also what the typical client coming into Great Clips expects, shocked we're open on Sundays. Other things include HEAVY restrictions on stylists. Not flexible on hours for full time employees. No work-life balance to be attained, especially if you're in management.
Franchisees are held hostage I think by out-of-date expectations for business operations.The younger generation does not want to work in an environment GC creates.
Be realistic with the new desires of the younger work force. Enable better work-life balance for people. Raise pay rates and be realistic about the products they sell and the expectation for their stylists to sell product. the cost of living is so high anymore, the average client can sometimes hardly afford a haircut, let alone a tip, and product is out of the question. their product prices continue to rise, making product even harder to sell. Great Clips needs to make some hard decisions that are going to be worth it in the long run to get quality employees that want to stick around.
I did not need to. I wasn't given an interview, just hired because I was another body.
I was a general manager when I worked under GC so my wage was higher than an average stylist. many full time employees would average about 40-50k/year. some made 35k.
Where I live, diversity is rare anywhere. But there was definitely a lack of diversity amongst our salons.
Feeling proud of my work and internal satisfaction drives me. I love connecting with people and making them feel better about themselves.
I enjoy my career very much People and products such as American Crew
