Additional Information
I wanted to post an up-to-date review since the only other ones on here are EXTREMELY outdated in terms of how things are run as of right now.
Shifts: 11am-7pm day shift, 7pm-2am (3 am on F/Sat/Sun) night shift
Floor length gowns are required, stage is full nude. One of the owners likes to micromanage hair, shoes, etc, but he's not around that often and doesn't have much power. Main owner is the best boss I've ever had (including outside the industry).
THE GOOD:
House fees: No tip out for day shift, if you work a day shift that week you get a free pass for your next night shift. Tip out for night shift is $35 arrival before 7pm, $50 after. If you don't pay these at the door when you arrive, they add on some at the end of the night. Other than this fee, there's nothing else that comes out of your pocket.
Club: This club is probably cleaner than my house (and I'm not a messy person). Gorgeously designed and decorated, huge dressing room with a really nice bathroom. Club has 3 levels:
1: two stages 10ft poles, bar, lounge seating. Modern, but looks like a strip club.
2: two stages, 20ft poles, hightop bar, slightly more lounge seating, white marble top counters/ white/blue lighting (really classy vibes). bottle service only on weekends.
3: VIP floor, overlooks the 2nd floor, no one really sits there they just throw money over the railing and then come back down. Private dance area is on this floor.
Making money: DC is strict no-touching, so essentially all of your money is stage money. 10 min sets 1 or 2 times an hour. The other way to make money is to sit and talk with customers. If you can hustle, this is where you'll make the real money. Private dances do happen, but they're kind of rare since they aren't lap dances (this is a strict rule). Private dances are $110 for 10 min, you keep $50. There are also shower shows, those are $165ish? for 10 min, you keep $75. The experienced girls will tip out the bouncers to help get them a spot at the table with the high rollers. If you're a house favorite, you might not need to do this as much because the owners and managers will do this for you automatically, but in my experience the bouncers are a little more helpful because they have a constant view of who is on the floor and tipping well. It varies SO MUCH from girl to girl and from night to night, but on average, 200-300 is a bad night, 500+ is a decent night, best night I've had is 1000.
Security: Security is absolutely on point. Everyone HAS to be walked to their cars at the end of a shift. All IDs scanned at the door, so they actually will/do ban people who are being shitty/ breaking rules. Only downfall I've seen is with occasional new bouncers who aren't as attentive as they need to be on the floor, but management is pretty much on top of it and I've seen bouncers get pulled off the floor and switched out when they aren't doing what they need to. Make friends with the higher up/ veteran bouncers, to get connections and because they're just awesome people.
Management: Management is pretty good. I've never had any major issues with them. Be professional, and you'll be fine. Same goes with the owners.
THE BAD:
- Girls get fired here every single week. All it really takes is one thing, so be careful. Don't get too drunk, do NOT fight with the other girls, do not steal, never ever ever bring drugs in. Weed may be legal in DC but it is banned in the club, owners have drug dogs come in frequently and they'll randomly search your bags at the door. If you're a responsible and respectful human being its really not hard at all to keep your job here, but there have been a few firings with no explanation.
- There is more money to be made at other clubs. Not necessarily other clubs in DC, but obviously you'd make more at a lap dance club. Summer is slow season, picks up in the fall/winter/early spring. This club can be SO hit or miss with money. You'll have one week where everyone makes 700+ on a Wednesday night, then one where no one leaves with more than 300 on a Saturday night.
In short, girls will sit in the dressing room for hours and pout over how much they aren't making every single night (when it's a good night no one is acknowledging it because they're all out on the floor hustling their tooshies off LOL). There's more money at lap dance clubs, but if thats not your cup of tea, this is where you want to work. Girls who have worked at other clubs and have made more will tell you they stay at Mpire because of the owners and how well the club is run. Girls very frequently leave the other DC clubs to come here, and always say they are shocked at how much nicer it is.
