Think Twice Before Applying - werkgeversreview Airbrush Technician bij Sugared + Bronzed

-Mandatory extended hours (8am-12am) during holiday and festival weeks with no overtime pay unless you work more than 40 hours in that week. If you're only working a few shifts /week (8+ hours in those shifts), it doesn't count -Between cleaning the rooms between clients and spraying, it can have a physical impact on your body -Difficult to grow within the company. I've seen so many promises be made to coworkers within the company about moving up, to then find out the company outsourced -No raises. Income is based on minimum wage + gratuity (there's a "suggested" 18% gratuity added on to each service you do, but it's not guaranteed..clients can still change it. Your paycheck relies on your clients). -No holiday pay: Salon closes on major holidays, so if you work on the day of the holiday, they don't pay you. You'd have to pick up a shift to make up for the day/income lost -No PTO, difficult to get time off: I've worked here for almost two years and when their new time off policy came into effect, I started looking for a new job. It used to be that you had to put in a request 30 days in advance and it would normally be approved. As of 2024, you get 15 days of UNPAID vacation time. For it to be considered vacation time, you have to take 3-4 days off in a row. If you only need 1-2 days off, or 5+ more days off, the company doesn't deem it as vacation time (even though you get 15 days a year to use whenever lol), and you have to find coverage or call out (which leads to a write up if you don't have sick time accumulated.) I've worked in restaurants, offices, schools, etc. and I've never heard of such a policy -Senior management has been disrespectful to employees and store directors during salon visits -Culture can be very cliquey/gossipy/favortism -Company values clients over employees I used to enjoy working here. It's sad to see how the company has changed over the last year and a half.
