Equinox reviews

Equinox has to be thee WORST company to work for. All of the employees are underpaid, ESPECIALLY the Front Desk staff. The position is not just scanning people in, you have to cater to everyone on staff as well as the members. I had 3 managers within a 6 month span, and was forced to work with the flu and conjunctivitis! all because no one would cover my shift Members spoke up for me and my boss still did not care, matter of fact I was fired 2 weeks later because members defended the unfairness or my treatment. Either the people they put in charge of the locations do not care about their employees or the company as a whole does not care.

Way too many hours and way underpaid. Not unusual to work a 12 hour day and get compensated for maybe half of that. If you weren't there all day everyday, it was seen as you don't care. It's very numbers driven, so management will only feed trainers that have many clients and are known to sell packages. Mandatory meetings 2 or 3 days a week. You have to go even if you have nothing scheduled for that day. And it's usually all the same content (overcoming rebuttals, how to make the most out of a 30 min session, etc.) Manager says you run your own business, but you are so micromanaged. Mandatory "Special Events" at least 3 days a week, which comes off as desperate to the members. Sometimes there will be multiple special events at once and members literally run from you because they know it's a sales ploy. Such a rat race.
