Pros
CPY is a place filled with kind, bright and focused people. For the most part it is a joy to go to work and get to manage a space built around wellness. Managing for CPY requires long hours, but the fact that you can make a flexible schedule and balance out your day with a yoga class helps keep the balance. Teaching classes and leading trainings is a wonderful way to feel connected and grounded and I love the community I am a part of. The company is grounded in yogic principles and has done a good job of keeping the culture of corepower yoga alive during a big period of growth.
Cons
CPY pays a pretty low annual salary for the amount of responsibility and work required to do the job well, especially in premium markets. Even when you do everything right, the bonus payouts feel small and pretty insignificant. There is also little to no staff development and very few outside benefits - no 401k, no tuition matching, and no real funds for education or growth. There is also very little room to move up in the company if you are not willing to uproot and move to a new market.
