Phenix-Salon-Suites

A typical day at work consisted of answering a high volume of phone calls from potential and current Salon Professionals.  Communicating multiple times a day with the owners of the company for daily updates on business activity.  Traveling around large geographical areas to meet with beauty professionals to tour and lease salon suites.  Communicated with maintenance staff/salon suite owners throughout the day to process maintenance requests.
Opened and leased out (10) salons to over 27 stylists per location.

I learned how to multi-task in a high fast paced environment, while working under pressure.  I also learned that I was capable of doing far more than I thought I was capable of.

Management was very nice to work with.  Always willing to listen to and implement new ideas which would allow the company to grow and run much smoother on a daily basis.  

The hardest part of the job was to deal with anywhere from (50) to (100) stylists calling you daily, while receiving anywhere from (25) to (50) calls a day from potential lessees.  Also, traveling anywhere from Bel-Air, Maryland to Roanoke, Virginia without being reimbursed for hotels and gas.

This specifically is about the Bala Cynwd Location. The appearance is a salon and That You run Your Space the way you want. When you get this opportunity it looks great. You can decorate it, set your hours and charge the prices you want. They charge you for everything! Your room, your back bar, and even for trash removal. They are constantly changing policies that will leave you paying to work there, literally. They have NO consistent desk presence, they have No professionalism . The owner speaks negatively about other staff. They lock the doors odd times of the day. They let you decorate suites as your own and then move you to non decorated rooms to make you share with other stylist that you may not even know.  They will give someone else Your Space and charge the next person more $. High turnover. The owner will change the way your are paid to avoid responsibility for taxes. BEWARE!

What is the best part of working at the company?
Working with talented professionals 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
The Process of eviction  and the drama that comes with it. 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
I’ve been with the company  over 8 years.    For the most part I have enjoyed working for Phenix.  I have met some great tenant in the eight years I have been there.  Phenix Salon Suites  does not have a 401K, Health Insurance, or Retirement package. A part of me wished I had thought about this now that I’m older, but the hours were flexible which made it nice.  I travel to Southlake Tx and Dallas Tx to oversee two other properties twice a month to meet with onsite managers and to check on any issues with the properties.  I have enjoyed overseeing the properties and  the  fact that the owner has put they’re trust in me.

Phenix Salon Suites wasn't like any other day in the Salon. They are all private contractors working for themselves in their own private rooms which I thought was pretty cool. I worked for such an amazing lady. We got along really well which made it super easy and fun. I loved everything about working with her, she taught me all her different techniques and told me if I ever wanted to come back she would go over a full haircut or do a color with me on a friend. Whenever I get the opportunity to go back and work with her I always do.

You come in work, clean , be at the front desk and do anything that the owner asks you to do , he is very kind, accommodating, and understands life happens. Yeah sometimes it gets boring but your guaranteed hours no matter how slow or busy it is one other issue can be the tenants can and will have issues sometimes and may get complaints but don’t take it to heart. Because if it’s a serious issue the owner will let you know but he’s very nice about things and won’t bring you down so I would 1000% recommend this job to anyone .

I love working with and for this company i do feel like management should get some type of pay because you do deal with alot of issues that can take your hold day, and travel time to get things done. Overall this is a great company. It definitely feels like family and it helps when you love what you do. The owner  Mr. Davis is great to work with and he doesn't wait to make things happen. Whatever we need he makes it happen. 

Too many issues, different managements per locations. Management can do better to help support stylist. Overall management has to do better to keep stylist happy. We do our part they need to do thiers maybe by hiring more people whi can be on staff to pay attention more closely.  You have your own suite so you can control your environment which is pretty cool. You can make yiur suite your own, there are no benefits, no classes.

Phenix Salon Suites is a family and working for them about 5 years has been the opportunity of a lifetime. You will learn as you grow. The relationships made will be not just beneficial for you as employees also for the SP you are making a relationship with. 

I enjoyed my time at Phenix with my own suite. A great way to enjoy doing hair and having your own space. If your tired of the old school type salon where you’re in a large room with many stylists a suite is the answer. It allows privacy with your clients, and being 100% responsible for all salon functions.

A typical day at work was to greet customers at the door, clean the hallways, bathrooms and take out trash.  Collect rent from Tenants.  I learned  a small amount of accounting.  I didnt' have hand co-workers. The hardest party of the job was taking out the trash because it was 50 gallon containers and sometimes hard to maneuver. The most enjoyable part about the job was the clients.
