Pros

Many amazing co-workers, 50% discount on retail (only on pay days), free classes

Cons

Did you notice how many of the replies from corporate starts with an apology for the late reply? That should be clue #1 as to what you will be dealing with. Corporate management has no idea how to run a business. The revolving door of spa directors is a testament to the chaos. As has been mentioned ad nauseam, they just throw people in with no training and it's sink or swim. Bad apple employees intimidate management; it's impossible to get fired at exhale so if you're unprofessional, toxic or a bully, this is the place for you. Exhale is extremely wasteful with how they spend money (e.g. by having way too many skin care lines, unnecessary "director" positions at corporate level pertaining to esthetics, and on and on), instead of paying better/offering insurance to more people. Inexperienced people are in charge at the national and local levels.

Pros

The role provided steady employment and an opportunity to gain experience, though opportunities for growth and recognition were limited.

Cons

Limited recognition for strong performance and a workplace culture that sometimes favored personal relationships over merit. Communication from leadership could be inconsistent, and opportunities for growth and fair advancement were not always clear.
