Pros

Samples and employee incentives are all that's left.

Cons

Too much workload for too little pay. Starts new managers higher than your senior managers who have stuck through the awful transition to the "New" Sally Beauty. They basically terminated half of the DMs and TMs to cut costs and it's been awful since that happened. Oh and don't expect a decent raise even when you're a top performer and won a Presidents award last year, I could only get 1.00 more per hour and it took 6 weeks to get. I gave up at that point and got a different job. Also, you will have extremely lean staffing, expect to work by yourself and help dozens of customers with no break. Watch your merchandise walk out the door, hope you can keep giving amazing customer service when you came even help people because you are so busy. You also may close by yourself so expect unsafe working conditions for you and your staff! No extra hours given to train new stuff or update the stores, these things are expected to be done while you are helping customers during business hours. Ever since the transition, I have seen my DM once in 6 months. Basically you are thrown to the wolves with zero support.
