Pros

Career mobility (If you drink the koolaid) Most people are awesome and really believe in the mission and lifestyle around health and wellness Perks of LT membership, discounts on supplements, etc. are great Benefits/insurance are good - not bad, not great Plenty of opportunities to explore other teams if your current role is not the best fit. If you commit (and bust your butt), career development and ladder climbing can happen relatively quickly.

Cons

Leadership is frustratingly inefficient Entrepreneurial mindset - which just means decisions come from the top and are gospel. It is VERY common for a project or campaign that teams have worked months on to be axed at the last minute just because an executive doesnt like it. OR a complete pivot/redo is demanded. Just as common for a NEW idea/product/program launch to come through with the utmost urgency - doesn't matter how small or pointless it seems to EVERYONE else - and takes priority over all other projects (even the ones critical for actual business function) There is an troubling culture towards the top. To make it beyond a Director level, you need to demonstrate you are a full bought-in "yes man" (or yes woman). Almost no one pushes back on ideas upward, and there is a cycle of borderline verbal and emotional abuse. It is not uncommon for a senior VP to get screamed at and berated in front of a conference room full of other "leaders" There are some great people in leadership roles, and a few not great ones, but all have sold their soul to some extent. Culture is work work work first for the shareholders. Culture is very forced, insincere and as boring as corporate culture can get.

Pros

There are none- I was lied to repeatedly during my interview

Cons

Lied to repeatedly during my interview, repeatedly not provided the support I was promised. So I reported a manager to HR and shortly after began receiving texts that were harassing in nature, commenting on my weight, intelligence, skills, etc. HR swept this under the rug. This place is corrupt.

Pros

You won’t have a hard time finding the equipment you need to give your clients the best experience possible.

Cons

As described in the headline, this is a micromanaged facility with many cliques. As many have described, the pay is 100% commission. Even if you have a 16,000 hour month, you are still walking away with around four to $5000 a month. Then, they will expect you to be at the facility for your entire shift (6-3pm for example), while not paying you a dime for any time that you’re not with a client. Additionally, I was on a flex schedule after earning a $14,000 trailing average over a three month span. When my trailing average went below 14,000, they put me back on my regular schedule due to me, not hitting my quota. As soon as I left the meeting with my boss, I found out that one of my other colleagues had a flex schedule while making $10,000 a month less than me. The company does not care about its people. They care about the bottom line dollar and what you can do for the company. I now work as a fully remote employee, and have no ambition of ever coming back to even work out at lifetime athletic.
