Pros
Long term there are none. Good buzzing environment when it’s busy
Cons
Standing all day at reception No flexibility with days off (including a family emergency!) Expected to arrive before your shift to open the salon and stay late to close the salon and not get paid for it. Expected to surpass annual targets but with no bonus structure (talking about reception teams here btw). Managers get great Christmas bonuses, Reception get maybe €250-350 before Christmas week if you’re lucky. Expect NOTHING else! They run a “Managers Course” where some reception teams get a chance to be trained as managers and “possibly” be placed as a salon manager afterwards. Complete BS because majority of those who attend the course get placed back in their original salon as receptionist again. Area Managers are all related to the PM family meaning it’s nearly impossible to move up the ladder. Head Office is an incestuous joke. Extremely high turn over of staff in salons due to NO BENEFITS, NO INSURANCE, NO PENSION and NO CHANCE FOR INCREASED SALARY (unless you’re there years and maintain passing your target which btw is not worth it)
