Pros

Fast-paced Many learning opportunities Ability to move around to other Departments Free membership Encourages Healthy Lifestyle Chances to move up within the company

Cons

Raises happened for most hourly's (which I wasn't hourly) when minimum wage goes up Management-both Corporate and Club level-very disconnect from day to day activities of Front line employees. Very little thanks given to good performance It all about popularity and talking a good game Management plays favorites with employees who are their friends Very hostile place to work; gossip constantly in all the clubs

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.
