just to be let go for being sick and having a surgery. I had worked many hours overtime, when I was sick, on my days off ect. It is very sad to say that the corporate looks at you as a number no matter how hard of a worker you are and what you did for the company. I had managed a ZoomTan salon for 2.5 years. You will rarely see a penny of commission. Only the Florida associates regularly make their goals. Sales goals are pretty unrealistic for the upstate New York market. You aren't allowed to leave the building so always plan on bringing food that you probably won't have time to eat. We also don't get breaks, in the slow season we have time to sit down but it is usually too busy. The good employees end up leaving due to very little pay. What made me leave was the little pay, no raise, and being forced to work with rude associates that don't clean and are an absolute nightmare to be around. there are so many complaints because they wont allow managers to fire associates that are rude and disrespectful (to management, co workers and clients), don't clean, and constantly call in/drop shifts, refuse to take out the garbage, leave the salon filthy. There needs to be better screening with the hiring process. And with single coverage it creates alot of problems. Now a days people rarely do 2 week notice, the new generation in the work force just doesn't care. At this point everyone in town has pretty much worked at zoom tan and a majority of the applicants we get are pretty awful (there are a few good ones every now and then). One major issue with zoom tan is there turn over rate.

She really cares about her staff and goes above and beyond and that is what made me stick it out. I stayed as long as I did because I had the best district manager. My location had some of the sweetest clients and is close to my home. I worked at zoom tan for little over a year.
