The people you train are nice but management is horrible

Pros

People you train are nice You don't have to recruit for clients You can make your own schedule. The facility is a good environment to work in.

Cons

Management is not organized They give you clients but then take them away from you. They do not update you on if a client is having an issue with your training style. The tell you you will be making $16/hr but then you realize you're only making 12 per session. Basically not clear on what income will be. Make too many promises that can not be kept. Does not respect your schedule.

Pros

All of the people I've met at Fitness Connection have been friendly and helpful. From the maintenance person I only see occasionally to the front desk manager I see everyday, folks are always willing to take time to help or answer questions.

Cons

As with all large companies, knowledge sharing can be challenging. Fitness Connection does as well as most I've encountered.
