Run...Run very fast and far away! I'm telling you RUN!

Manager

Business Outlook

Pros

Very few...maybe the health insurance and PTO this is a Company in serious financial distress and will never be a true competitor in the weight loss industry. How can they be honest with their members if they are dishonest with their employees?

Cons

In case you didn't catch the caption above...run for your life. Probably one of the worst experiences of my career. How the National Sales Manager continues to keep her job is beyond me. I can assure you corporate management would not last a week much less a day in a weight control center. Recruiters are not honest, layoffs are done via phone, commissions are non existent, the mentality that Gym rats make the best managers and sales force is a farce. No surprise most S Florida locations will start closing their doors very soon.

Business Outlook

Pros

Growing company with centers all over the east coast and Texas. Intrinsic value associated with product: seeing people achieve success and lead a healthier lifestyle Staff in my center consisted of very educated and amicable people Four weeks of training in order to gain product knowledge and sales knowledge

Cons

Lack of communication/support between corporate and centers. A lot of turnover due to lack of communication and organization Hire individuals that are overqualified for what the company expects and hence, undervalue their employees

Could be awesome, but its not!

Assistant sales manager

Business Outlook

Pros

Most of the center level employees are really awesome to work with and there are only about 3-6 people in each location so there isnt a lot of confusion with too many people being around. The program does actually work if people follow it so most of the customers are happy.

Cons

The corporate level is all screwed up, things are constantly changing and hardly ever communicated to center staff, you only find out that things have been changed once you are told that something that used to be right is now wrong. The upper level staff all watch out for each other and will throw a center employee under the bus at any moment to save their own butt!!!
