Pros
- My team was lovely! Thank you to all of the sweet girls who I had the absolute pleasure of managing! - Free unlimited waxes. - Had amazing racial/ethnic diversity and representation in my territory. I did feel a little singled out as one of the only queer women in the building, but we're hard to find in this industry, I guess!
Cons
- Senior management was incredibly micro-managey. - Was called names, screamed at, and threatened by senior management on an almost daily basis :( - Was required to model Brazilian waxes in front of trainees, even if uncomfortable. Some trainees were very unprofessional about it :( - Had my job and pay threatened and held over my head often. - Wasn't paid enough to get a lawyer to fight the abuse I faced at this company. - Was made to deny my employees' time off requests even if I could easily make that time off work. - The raises I was allowed to offer my team, even if their performance was STELLAR, were miniscule and laughable. - HR was non-existent, so the only support you could get for mistreatment was screaming in the car on the way home. - Sick with COVID-19? Guess you're coming to work!
