Pros

The gym has a good layout and enough space for most workouts.

Cons

The gym lacks essential leg machines like the hip abductor and hip adductor, which are standard in most gyms. Staff have repeatedly ignored requests to add these machines. Cleaning is done during busy workout times, causing inconvenience to members. The cleaning products have a very strong perfume scent that can trigger allergies for many people.

Pros

Nothing. Do not even think its going to be good.

Cons

Everything. Company is using software from two decades ago. Their daily company meetings are pointless. The company is ran by juice heads who are only promoted because they been with the company for awhile, not because they excel and know how to train and develop people. They run through people like no tomorrow because the pay is under industry standard.
