Life Time Employee Reviews about "free gym membership"

Pros

Gym membership perks and pool access are very good

Cons

Management does not "walk there talk" This could be an amazing place to build a career if they placed value in there staff

Pros

I was a camp counselor for two years in a row. The training is tough (they will kick you out of the program if you failed the tests) but that ensured you had a strong group of employees and you know people knew what to do. The friendships you make with your fellow counselors have lasted beyond my employment. If you love working kids, this is a great camp job. Also, Life Time has money, no other way to say it. The facilities are beautiful (and you get free gym membership to enjoy it) and quality resources are invested into the camps. We had good equipment to play games with the kids, good field trip locations, and coach (AC!) buses to take you there. At my own local branch, I knew my direct supervisor had our backs, expected a lot from us but was fair and kept work fun. The values of the 'healthy way of life company' are ingrained into you and really pushed through all aspects. Even though I don't work there anymore, I still attend the gym as a member because I know the training and resources Life Time invests.

Cons

Some of the counselors are also employed at the child center throughout the year. It can get a little clique-y and sometimes, due to their familiarity, they let things slide more, assuming the newer employees will pick up the slack. But this is a minimal issue. The only other con is that because of the pricier nature of the gym, you do (sometimes) get a certain class of people who expect to be treated in a certain way (they like the word yes). That can sometimes translate to spoiled children. And sometimes that meant not getting parental support when their child misbehaved. And sometimes management would placate them rather than support our decisions. But that is overall very rare. 95% of the children are a pleasure to work with and most of the parents are very reasonable and very willing to work with you on behavioral issues, when they arise.

Pros

I liked the free gym membership and flexible hours.

Cons

The pay was not great.

Pros

Free Gym Membership and able to use the facility which is great compared to other gyms. very clean

Cons

Pay is not the greatest especially for the amount of work you have to put up with

Pros

Lifetime Fitness was a good entry level job. It provided clear responsibility, opportunity to develop customer service skills, solve problems and learn to work with other people. The compensation of wage and gym membership were fair for the type of work expected

Cons

It is a 24 hour club; so the hours are sometimes ideal depending on what department you work in. Also it is tough to determine the next steps to reach the next position. Have to be be willing to deal with all types of customers

Pros

Great benefits getting a free gym membership and only paying shop charge for services whend you work at the spa

Cons

Management has a high turnover rate. No organization. No support. Only care about the numbers not about their employees

Pros

Relatively laid back work environment; flexible schedules; free gym membership and discounts on products and services

Cons

Pay is pretty low...minimum wage for most employees.

Pros

Free gym membership and friendly coworkers

Cons

Management was really bad at communication

Pros

The job allows for full time and part time work and also includes a gym membership with the job. You tend to meet a lot of interesting people while working there.

Cons

The pay is pretty much minimum wage and as everyone knows, this is not a living wage making working a second job necessary. This means that you are tired all the time.

Pros

good benefits and gym membership

Cons

bad working environment and managers. bad hours.
