Free membership can't make up for poor management and pay

Pros

The only pro was getting a free membership to the club.

Cons

The management was terrible. It felt like no one was there to support you. The pay was terrible, with the company taking over half of what you charged for sessions.

Pros

The loyal members and pay per class.

Cons

Poor leadership’s, condescending, lacks the ability to communicate professionally. Oftentimes talked down to but it’s framed in a way that makes it sound that it’s part of lifetimes guidelines to be treated poorly. Passive aggressive behavior. The worst management I’ve worked under and the find ways to make you look like you’re the problem but then you figure out that it’s not just you who’s being treated this way.
