Pros

Young work environment can make it fun. Great part time job because you create your own schedule, unfortunately they will not hire someone directly part time, you must start full time.

Cons

This is a sales job with zero base pay. Management is only focused on hitting their numbers. Compensation is 100% commission with absolutely no incentive to reach your 'goal'. Obtaining clients is hard, all new members are sent to a select group of trainers so unless you're in that group you're expected to walk around the gym talking to people or making cold calls to members.

Pros

Members are great and free membership is a perk. Coworkers are supportive.

Cons

You will be micromanaged to death, whether you have three weeks of experience or 20 years. Policies are vague. Communication with leadership is poor. You can be a strong, experienced performer and have very few classes, or brand new and get 8 a week. There appears to be no logic or strategy to anything that happens.
