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

Manager

Recommend

CEO approval

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.

Recommend

CEO approval

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
