Terrific education, soul crushing place2work
Pros
Education - efti and from senior trainers. Despite coming into the company with my ACE cert the efti education program is definitely very good. Also tips from the top tier trainers were priceless.
Cons
Floor shifts in the "blue shirts" management tries to justify floor shifts selling you the bs it gets you leads for clients. No it doesn't!!! Management also refuse to let you request off from floor shifts you have to try to get them covered and the kicker? They do the floor shift schedule 4 months at a time. Members look at you like your a towel boy/loser then there are HOURS of passive aggressive sales meetings per week. Lowest pay ridiculous hours I spent about 20 hours total training in 6 months with 100s of hours wasted picking up dirty towels and getting sick constantly. Equinox is also pimping out new trainers - member pays $125 per hour trainer gets around $25-30 only!!! I was sold by the glamour of being a trainer at such a high end club don't make the same mistake not worth your time or health. Education is incredible that's about it.
