This company does not care about the person, only about numbers.

Pros

The only thing I can say is that you get a free membership.

Cons

All I have to say is stay away from this company. They micro manage, promise money that never comes through. Do NOT work for this company!!!!!

Lack of Career Advancement

Pros

Working in the fitness industry is always a perk - the company values health and wellness. You get to meet awesome members and clients on a daily basis. It is a decent place to start a sales career, if you have zero experience.

Cons

The compensation is extremely low and the opportunities for advancement are limited. The attrition rate was high, so as a sales staff we saw increased pressure to meet goals even though our resources were limited. We were often overtasked and overworked. If you are a good sales rep, you can make much more money at a different company. Often, management would ask us to work long hours or stay at work until 8 pm at night just to have the illusion of facetime. We were micromanaged and there was very litle autonomy. I never really felt like the compnay cared about my development or my work life balance.

Pros

If you're a college student looking for part-time work, working at a Wellbridge gym can be beneficial. For starters, you'll get paid. Considering there are students everywhere needing part-time jobs, just be happy if you get one. It's a great resume builder as you will develop skills that can assist you in just about any career field (mainly your communication and problem-solving skills). As long as you get along with the other managers and members, you'll develop a nice list of references. The people you interact with will generally be nice. Having a free membership is nice, too.

Cons

It will lower your moral and wear thin on you. I'm a positive person who worked with other positive people, and at one point, we all had to ask ourselves if working the front desk was really worth our time. You're going to deal with rude members who will release their angst on you. Not because you did something wrong, mind you. But simply because you're a visible face. Managers, more than likely, won't come to your defense or step up to be the first point of contact for disgruntled members. If a manager doesn't do their job, and thus disappoints a member, you will be the one to feel that disappoint. Why? Chances are, said manager won't be around to take on any face-to-face accountability. A lot of this revolves around everyone's low pay, despite their nifty job titles. In Atlanta, front desk and kid's center employees only make $0.75 over minimum wage for positions that seem to add more tasks, importance, and responsibilities by the month. On top of that, any hopes of making a career out of working for a Wellbridge gym are slim, and probably not even worth it. It's nothing more than a place to work to supplement your education or whatever else you do.
