Low pay, and morale coupled with little opportunity to grow.

Anonymous employee

Business Outlook

Pros

You'll work with some very talented people (director level and under) You'll be stretched thin, but have an opportunity to experience different roles and areas within the company giving you the opportunity to learn a lot.

Cons

Pay is terribly low You'll be promised raises and opportunities to get you to stay, but then nothing will ever come of them. Management (executive level and above) is a mess and most people in those roles are not qualified to be in then. NEPOTISM! This company has a serious problem with hiring and promoting family members and people close to the family. Almost every person in an executive role is there because they are related to the family or know the CEO and most are completely unqualified for that role.

Pros

Helping people achieve their weight loss goals

Cons

Highly disorganized. They are understaffed and expect the 2-3 employees that are in the center to do EVERYTHING. They are too cheap to do advertising. Its about who you know not what you know. They fired 6 managers in a week just to pay for advertising in January. They are despicable. They are trying to sell to franchise buyers but the company sucks. They are bleeding money and they are too clueless to know how to get back on track. I would never work their again even if they tripled my salary. You have zero work life balance. You have to use PTO if you want a Saturday off... absolutely RIDICULOUS.
