Pros

The facility members are for the most part, polite and approachable. The facility is aesthetically pleasing which makes for a pleasant environment to work in.

Cons

The facility is vast with several departments, it is BUSY, it has a kids academy, tennis courts, several swimming pools, classes etc. oh and the phone is ringing constantly. As a Member Services Associate you are bombarded with everyone going everywhere, you can easily deal with 200 people in an hour all of that to earn under $9hr. Males at the front desk must wear business professional attire, which means dress slacks no khakis, dress shirt, and tie, and they prefer you wear a suit jacket as well. Females must wear shoes preferably heels, dress skirt and blouse and possible jacket. You have to stand up constantly in these dress shoes with no seating options and you only get a 15 minute break. If you have a problem with a member or employee or any kind of grievance it will be ignored, this is a company that has over 100 locations and the employee experience is last on their list of priorities. The high turnover is due to the fact that the kind of employee Lifetime wants can get more money and get treated better elsewhere. Who wants to wear a suit and only make $10hr?

Pros

Free Membership Cool employees Discounts on services

Cons

They don’t pay anything, and the CEO should honestly be ashamed. If employees were paid properly, there wouldn’t be so much drama and tension in the workplace. Communication is terrible because management doesn’t even seem to care — probably because they’re getting crumbs too. Spa management was dreadful, and the demotion was necessary. How do you fail to have people booked during major holidays when the money and clientele are clearly there? There was no structure, no leadership, and no motivation for employees to succeed. Having a successful spa for 3 years and coming into this environment I was not impressed. No growth, no support, no appreciation. Loved the members tho! And S/O to Leemar, Virgil and Dr. Hayden love them down!
