Cons

As with all private large companies, this company is greedy and pretends to care about customers but in reality they are trying to squeeze them for every penny. If you enjoy acting like a used car salesman all day, this job is for you. Look up Life Time lawsuits and you will see how this company routinely cheats its employees and breaks labor laws. They act like they have made changes since these lawsuits but nothing has changed, they have just gotten better at firing the people that would blow the whistle before they can step forward. While working for this company I had a revolving door of General Managers - none of which lasted more than 8 months. They don't take the time to train anyone properly and then fault people for not knowing how to do their jobs. Their expectations are completely unrealistic. They tell you to have life balance but expect you to work 60 hrs a week. You are required to work every weekend and holiday and obscure event that has nothing to do with your area. Plan on spending 14 hrs at work on the final 3 day of each month. As a manager they ask you to do highly unethical things and then turn the wolves on you when you refuse to break safety rules or state codes. If you aren't in the kool-aid drinking, brown nosing clique of high schoolers that runs the company then they will make your life miserable. On multiple occasions I was bullied by another manager to the point that HR got involved. However, due to this other manager having a buddy in the corporate office, no real action could be taken for fear that HR would get in trouble with this higher up.

Pros

Members are great and free membership is a perk. Coworkers are supportive.

Cons

You will be micromanaged to death, whether you have three weeks of experience or 20 years. Policies are vague. Communication with leadership is poor. You can be a strong, experienced performer and have very few classes, or brand new and get 8 a week. There appears to be no logic or strategy to anything that happens.
