Pros

The only good thing about this job is the 30% discount that employees receive. If you use these products, that is a good discount.

Cons

We are never allowed to work over 40 hours...on the clock. When a new sale needs to be set up, many managers must work late into the night (sometimes off the clock) to get it finished. The work we have to accomplish takes well over 40 hours. The current upper management has made it almost impossible to receive a yearly raise, even for the most seasoned managers and for the managers who hit every nearly impossible goal that we are given. Each month they are adding more and more sales goals for the stores. If you don't reach your goal you are written up. Many managers pay for product they don't want or need to hit the goals. We are expected to do everything...sales, paperwork, wash windows, wax the floors. Good luck getting the tools you need to do the job, unless you want to pay for them out of your own pocket.

Pros

Helping people with health issues, fitness goals and general well-being can be fun and rewarding. You have the opportunity to meet a wide range of characters, which can be very entertaining. You get to work with some great people as well.

Cons

Retail hours....evenings and weekends, but that is part of the retail game. Compensation is a around 75% of what it should be.... Store Managers don't even make the state or federal average salary.
