Pros

- nice co workers - great decor - good concept - full time hours/decent pay - great music/ movies all day - snacks and drinks

Cons

- no advancement opportunities - management sucks - always over booked, due to call center as well receptionists booking - there's always confusion with the booking process because most ppl will lie about what an ER said to them, once we Skype the ER's you can never find which ER actually said this so we end up taking too many customers - blowouts are booked for 35-40 mins when they can actually take about 45 mins or more so all appointments overlap - stylists never get a break we had to keep handing them tickets back to back because of overbooking - managers are non existing, they sit in their office all day as if they know it's a mad house - stylists are underpaid, their tips suck as well - dead end job for everyone , high turnover rate, new hires everyday so customers grow fond of someone and by the next week they're no longer working there

Pros

It’s super fun and high energy! I absolutely love Olivia-the skills and standards she sets are high and encourages us to be our the best version of ourselves. She trains with passion and wants to see us succeed as individuals in our own capacity . Behind every great woman there a heart of gold and that’s our Olivia- Chase is an amazing educator with lots of cool tips and tricks for us and is a total sweetheart but slays hair like a boss. I look up to them and I have grown tremendously!

Cons

If you don’t like to make yourself look presentable or like to be a clean person this isn’t the place for you . High standards don’t come easy and without hard work ! I’m not a lazy person or a negative person anymore because I’ve learned the heart and soul values through Drybar (Olivia and Chase) I’m a confident and love more because I open myself to learning new things from the best of the best! I think I’m coming back soon lol

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
