Pros

- If you want a very slow paced job then this is for you - Decent people at a peer level

Cons

- Basically minimum wage on the sales team. Their lead time is 12+ weeks so be prepared to not get paid until then. - Management seems to never be on the same page. Bickering happens at every meeting. You cannot have a conversation without them getting defensive. - Low energy environment. When business got really bad management just hid away. Poor leadership when the team needed it the most. They pretty much said well you got paid well earlier this year so that’s too bad. - Job is pretty much a call center. You deal with delivery and equipment issues most of the day. Company relies solely on inbound and does zero marketing to support that. They literally pride themselves about how little marketing they do and the sales team gets the brunt of that. - The CEO has confused me for someone else several times. Once he asked if he knew me in front of a customer. That is just a peek at what management looks like and how you will be treated here.

Pros

CEO is a friendly, intelligent guy who really cares about his employees at a surface level. PTO, benefits, pay average at best. Free pilates classes and discount on equipment. Casual dress code

Cons

TOXIC MANAGEMENT. I've never been treated lower than as an employee at Balanced Body. I worked with the sales team and the three managers in charge run the department miserably. Examples: Phone lines need to be open so someone was always live and available to take customer calls, even though we checked our voicemails often. Wave goodbye to your friend as you take your lunch shift. At one point, the warehouse was infested with cockroaches and water bugs. No one in management cared and they were literally EVERYWHERE. Sales managers offered/threatened the sales team to work holidays in order to get their commission, forcing team members away from their families in order to answer phones for early black friday sales and keep their pay. We had a rule implemented from the main sales manager called the 60 second rule - we were not allowed to talk to our fellow coworkers about things unrelated to work for longer than 60 seconds or we would get in trouble. Talk about being treated like preschool kids. These are just a few examples. Our sales team was an awesome group of people and everyone hated management. Turnover was constant.
