Pros

The job is easy. Free meals, shakes ext.....Mon-Fri unless it’s around the holidays or end of the year. Fun Company Christmas party.. Fairly good Ins prices.

Cons

There are so many so where to begin. First off you don’t leave till they say you do. So you can never really make much needed plans on a daily basis. There are a few Co workers that expect you to be as fast as they are only after a few days or a week.. They have too high of expectations too soon. Some days you can work 5-6 hrs and then other days it can be 10-12 hr days and you never know till the day of. No one wants to live and work like that.. Need to pay more for the work you do. Just a very disappointing experience.

Pros

Most departments in Medifast have a really nice work life balance. The organization also does a lot for employees including events, free gym, free food and learning opportunities. Over the years, the organization has changed significantly and is returning to growth mode. There is excitement about where we are going and the positive impact we can make on people's lives.

Cons

As I mentioned above, there has been a lot of change over the years and you must be able to adapt to those changes.

Pros

Sorry, but I worked for Medifast when they were trying to build the brand in S. Florida. The brand never took off... most all the new centers closed... because there was no help with Corporate "Branding" in the S. Florida Market.

Cons

As a Sales Manager you rely on the help from Corporate to help with branding, especially in a new area. Pay is based on a base hourly wage, with promise of high sales volume and a percentage of that. NEVER got to the "sales income" level to ever get a commission. Focus on the customers is not on the weight they are losing, but keeping them in the program, so they will buy the weekly food required for the weight loss.
