Predatory employer who cheats you and doesn’t even pay minimum wage - Hair Stylist Soon Beauty Lab Employee Review

• Management at Fort Greene • Usually more than part-time hours • Education • Automatic Tips

• Super Lazy yet always complaining management for Assistants/Front Desk • Old head toxic salon environment- Pretentious stylists yell and berate you all shift and usually are the ones who tip you out the least. • Old heads always gossiping about coworkers, crab bucket mentality not supportive. • Carrol Gardens Clientele are majority wealthy suburban house-wives and their children making it feel monotonous. • Owners/Management live elsewhere in country which is just a reminder that this doesn’t have a local charm although salon locations are in two Brooklyn neighborhoods… it’s a Corporation ran like a corporation you’re just another number to them which is why they have high turnover. • Management is always taking weeks off of work but won’t even allow you to call in sick. • Long 10-12 hour shifts even when salon doesn’t have clients and you barely get a 10-15 minute lunch break because you’re always tasked with some busy work such as cleaning or organizing someone else’s mess. • Got the ick when I watched numerous middle-aged stylists literally jump and skip for joy when they heard management fired a talented single mother stylish they just didn’t get along with.

coworkers and support staff are kind and good people

The employers are predatory liars. they claimed they were busy and that i would make money. after months of empty books they hired even more stylists without enough business to go around. they then blamed me for having an empty schedule.
