Pros

Very few, they do offer PTO but will work you to the bone, you will have NO quality of life. Medical Benefits are decent but I would rather buy my own insurance.

Cons

The Corporate office and upper management are completely out of touch with the daily operations of the centers. The constant changes are ridiculous and make it almost impossible for you to exercise creativity to generate sales. Instead they focus on ridiculous time consuming reports just complete chaos. This was truely the worst working envioronment I have ever worked in.

Pros

- Enjoyed helping people lose weight - Made great connects with my clients, which will help with networking in the future.

Cons

- Recruiters lie to you about commission, upward mobility potential, weekends you are required to work and holidays during the interview process. - Do not have a standard protocol for conducting performance reviews, thus making it impossible to receive a promotion or pay increase. - Hours for Center Employees were constantly being expanded on weekends without providing extra staff to help cover those hours or compensation for current employees. - Most centers are understaffed requiring extra work for employees as well as limited time off. No balance between life/work. - A lot of clients returned programs due to medical problems they had after eating the food. - Poor HR

I am not happy working for Medifast, no one ever seems to know what is going on because things are always changing.

Pros

The benefits that are offered are good.

Cons

Center employees are treated very poorly. Center employees are expected to work very long hours including holidays. No one in the company ever seems to know what is going on because policies are always changing. They say they like to promote within but I have never seen this happen.
