Pros

The loyal members and pay per class.

Cons

Poor leadership’s, condescending, lacks the ability to communicate professionally. Oftentimes talked down to but it’s framed in a way that makes it sound that it’s part of lifetimes guidelines to be treated poorly. Passive aggressive behavior. The worst management I’ve worked under and the find ways to make you look like you’re the problem but then you figure out that it’s not just you who’s being treated this way.
