Pros

Was great at first despite minimum wage. My kids had free memberships along with myself to the gym until they aged out of the child center. But things changed after about a year and a half (was there 9 1/2 years).

Cons

This company values money above all else. They will always side with members over employees even if they are in the members are lying. They pay minimum wage and expect a lot in return. They often ignore the rules (ie, asking me to take children under 4 in a class when the age is clearly stated in all of the training and then claiming bad attitude when I refused). Also often ignore the fire regulations for number of people allowed in workout classes just so they don't get complaints and to keep members (aka customers) happy. Not interested in trying to keep long time employees-no pay raise for the last 4 years and when minimum wage went up, previous pay raises did not get included so was on the same pay as new employees even after 5 years of service.

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!
