Pros

Employee discount Subpar Supplements Subpar Vitamins

Cons

They don’t care at all for the customers or their employee. What the want is sales and want to cut hours. I was once told that a manager couldn’t work another store because their wife got into an accident. I said sure I’ll work a part of that shift. Later when I have a grandmothers funeral to go to I call the district manager, same one who called me up. I tell him my story and he essentially tells me that it’s up to me to deal with. Also in this conversation I find out he only wanted me to cover the shift so that way that manger wasn’t working to much overtime. Now I can’t get anyone to cover my shift because gnc cut everyone’s hours to avoid paying to much. My manger quit not to long ago so I have no guidance in what to do mind you I am still a recent hire and I was told to deal with myself after being willing to help out another store on false pretenses that it was an emergency. So now while I have an actual emergency I am told to deal with it myself by the district manager. Moral of the story gnc doesn’t care about it’s customers or it employees so high encourage you to work else where or buy else where. If you are someone who enjoys fitness and want to help people when it come to their health much like me then GNC is far from the place to do it. They care about sales not health.

Pros

The job provides excellent exposure to a structured sales plan for someone new to sales. The store gets plenty of foot traffic to create opportunities for customer engagement. The varriety of products to sell on is great as well. Pro Access is a great value for customers building a pre and post work out regiment or building a supplement routine.

Cons

You run the show. While there you are responsable for running the store.
