Cons
An inept CEO in denial of industry challenges steers the ship, and it's sinking. Executive "leadership" calls all the shots, doesn't hear feedback from club-level management, then makes everyone else's life miserable and holds them responsible when their executive plans (or lack thereof) don't work. Complete lack of adaptability to a changing market, stuck in the ways of 1995. Or maybe even 1985. The owner does not seem to care about the members or the employees--just about his bottom line. It's possible to run a business and be a good person, which he does not model. Pay for all employees pales in comparison to what the talent deserves, which is part of the reason turnover is so high in every department. There are opportunities for advancement here, but I don't want them...and you shouldn't, either. You'll be overworked, underpaid, and underappreciated. The company is slashing costs, and employee paychecks seem to be the first hit.
