Pros

The facilities are amazing; the cafe has great food, spa is fantastic and most of the people who work here are outstanding.

Cons

LifeTime is a terrible place to work. I didn’t believe the reviews and took a job here thinking I could help change the culture. Sorry to say it’s not possible unless they clean house in the c-suite. They will tell you they care about you and that they want you to take “healthy living time” and get your own workout in, but most employees are so overworked and burned out they never do. Most people who work there are unhealthy, stressed out and unhappy. The disconnect between corporate and the gyms is awful. The decision makers in this company are clueless to just how negative the environment is in most of the gyms. Many good people have been beaten down into just not giving a crap anymore. Also, the way the 60 day challenge is run and what’s expected of the training Staff for this event is a joke. The person who came up with this concept and the goal numbers set should be fired.

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!
