Pros

Probably one of the best opportunities in the training world outside of owning your own gym (hard to be a personal trainer your whole life) Lots of opportunities to sell You do get benefits You can somewhat make your own schedule if you do well enough

Cons

VERY little vacation time Low ceiling - the only way to make more money is to work more hours and to make good money, it requires 55-60 client hours Company is constantly complimenting itself and constantly putting bad products out that trainers are expected to sell VERY little continuing education help Company is very poorly managed and encourages inter departmental competition instead of team work Company penny pinches employees on company products like supplements and in the cafe

Pros

Free Membership Cool employees Discounts on services

Cons

They don’t pay anything, and the CEO should honestly be ashamed. If employees were paid properly, there wouldn’t be so much drama and tension in the workplace. Communication is terrible because management doesn’t even seem to care — probably because they’re getting crumbs too. Spa management was dreadful, and the demotion was necessary. How do you fail to have people booked during major holidays when the money and clientele are clearly there? There was no structure, no leadership, and no motivation for employees to succeed. Having a successful spa for 3 years and coming into this environment I was not impressed. No growth, no support, no appreciation. Loved the members tho! And S/O to Leemar, Virgil and Dr. Hayden love them down!
