Worst experience of my life.

Pros

Commission & helping people with their weight loss journey.

Cons

Horrible district managers in certain areas. Workers are bullied and abused. Pay is very low and work life balance is horrible. Thinking back I would have rejected the offer if i knew all of this would happen, not worth the mental abuse. Also, reporting these incidents does not help only makes the situation worse. Clients are not number one priority rather than sucking them dry of all money is top priority. Over- all nothing positive about this place.

They pay you on your unused vacation days when you leave

Pros

meeting really great people who come to us for assistance in losing weight

Cons

poor communication, no respect, long hours, working weekends, ridiculous unrealistic sales goals, the company charges weight loss program fees of hundreds of dollars to clients to sit for 5 minutes with counselors who don't know anything about weight loss! and the employee retention is very low, this company cannot keep good employees for over a year! and now they are paying employees commission only, really? the only employees that get promoted are the ones that work in the corporate headquarters who can say the word "scope" more than 5 x's in a sentence.
