Pros

Free gym membership for employees. Most peers are pleasant to work with.

Cons

Don't value their employees. All promotions go to friends of the manager. Minimum wage. No raises. Management is disorganized and cares about their bottom line over value.

Pros

- Flexible schedule as a trainer for the most part. (You have shifts, but as a commissioned employee they can't make you work specific hours.) - Good way to learn the basics of being a trainer: Client management, programming, and sales/marketing yourself as a trainer. - Time you spend with your clients is amazing, you actually do make a difference in their lives and you get to see some amazing transformations as well.

Cons

- It doesn't matter how well your clients do in reaching their fitness goals, if they don't sign up for more sessions every month, the company doesn't care. - You spend hours everyday and week having "meetings" where management berates you for not hitting sales goals. - Even if you hit goals, there's always a service/product of the month they make you push on every client whether it's right for the client or not. - Level of education among trainers is hit or miss. If you see a trainer teaching something wrong, you're not supposed to help their clients. - Too much politics/high school-esque drama/cliques. You're either in the popular crowd or you're on the outside and you get no help and have to fend for yourself. - Completely commission based job, if you don't sell anything - you don't make any money. - You work all day, every day when you're trying to make sales/get clients - splits shifts, mornings and nights, weekends, and you work 18 hours on the last day of the month to try and make your department's sales quotas - No life!
