My experience here has been ridiculous. I work at Life Fitness through a temp agency and have been here for a while.

Pros

Not sure, I'm still a temp after almost a year. The other coworkers(permanent) are very nice and professional. Pay is ok.

Cons

I feel used. I've been lied to. Manager needs to be honest and stop stringing temps along. How long do you think people will keep working without benefits. They say they value my work, but still a temp and they've hired people after me.
