- 5.0Oct 5, 2023Personal TrainerCurrent Employee, more than 1 yearBoulder, CO
Pros
- Amazing Management - Amazing Staff - Great Atmosphere - Great customers - Bigger lot than most local gyms - Variety of equipment compared to other gyms
Cons
I don't talk bad about the company I am still employed at. That would be stupid. But even if I wasn't, this place has brought many memories from great ones to stressful ones. That comes with any job though. What matters is whose running it, and how well they are doing that, and how you look at what life throws at you. And in my case, this location is top notch.
- 2.0Dec 5, 2023Sales and Service ManagerCurrent Employee, more than 1 yearOakland, CA
Pros
great community and gained valuable experience with a livable wage. benefits include discounts to many things like electronics and hotels but nobody tells you about it.
Cons
the workload is way bigger than advertised, I act as assistant general manager although I'm only the manager of one department. hours are erratic and I'm almost always called on my day off. and the location I work at receives little support from corperate when it comes to equipment and funding. area has a lot of crime with slow/nonexistent police response. also they axed commission before I got there.
- 5.0Nov 26, 2023Group Fitness InstructorCurrent Employee, more than 5 years
Pros
I love the 2 free memberships that I get for my family. We get paid an extra 15 minutes per class and 30 min per week for practice. They don't take advantage of paying 'admin pay' of minimum wage for online training or meetings
Cons
Sometimes hard to find a substitute instructor for a class
