Pros

People on the team were great People on the team were willing to work had for the company A few innovative products but leader in their field A few people who liked what they did and were good at it.

Cons

Lack of diversity and this seemed to pose an issue for their understanding of diversity in the workplace "Good Ol" Boys club feeling- if you did not hang out with certain people and do certain things you did not see the same advancement. ( This was true for Sr management, there were individuals who were NOT very skilled to do the jobs that they did . ) Not an idea place for working mothers- hopefully this is something that they are changing but they could have done better here. Had to present a proposal for my role to allow working remotely. (Note, several women with no children were not even working in the same state.) I began looking elsewhere because of this struggle. Observed other employees getting burnt out due to lack of support in their area of work. Compared to other companies, very few people LOVED what they did

Pros

I’ve really enjoyed my first 60 days at Life Fitness / Hammer Strength. The people are genuinely collaborative, supportive, and passionate about what they do. There’s a strong sense of pride in the products and the brand, and it shows in how teams work together internally and with customers. Seeing firsthand how the equipment is designed, engineered, and tested has been impressive and reinforces the quality and long-term value behind the brand. I’ve also appreciated the opportunity to connect directly with key accounts and valued partners early on, which has helped me quickly understand customer needs and how the organization supports their success.

Cons

Like any large, global organization, there’s a lot to learn and many stakeholders to navigate early on. The pace can feel fast at times, especially while onboarding into multiple systems and processes, but that’s expected and comes with the territory.

Pros

Familiar products. It's hybrid. Some decent people.

Cons

Toxic. Flat organization. Sales is a joke run by clowns....still use excel while there's no mandate to use SFDC. Marketing is a 3-headed snake. Phony, liars and so far behind. Tech stack is 2015 at best. Zero growth, career opportunities.
