Pros

Health Benefits. That is all.

Cons

Managers degrade licensed health professionals for excellent work and show favoritism to certain employees. I was constantly criticized and undermined, and micro managed. The pay was unfair. At 40 hours a week, I was only compensated for 20,

Pros

The opportunity to design wellness programming for Fortune 500 companies and government agencies. Free gym membership and access to the top talent in fitness, exercise education and lifestyle management expertise. The workplace environments are low stress and luxurious. Access to IDEAFIT and continuing education to build exercise prescription knowledge.

Cons

No job security for part-time, full-time, or general management. They care about the clients and revenue, not the work family. No holiday party or after work drinks here. Benefits are awful, no health insurance for part-time employees and insane copays for employees with health insurance, which is unfair because this is a health insurance company. Upper management depending on who is in your corner is not looking out for you, you're on your own for raises, promotions, benefits, hours and relocating. Good luck getting on track with the HR department they are remote. Per-Diem workers like GFI's, ES, PT's get burnt out after being bounced around from site to site to create a schedule. They get staffed for 4hrs one week, 1hr next week but never for a consistent amount of time. They have no job security because they're working without contracts and on rotating class calendars at will. Most of them don't have health insurance or employee benefits with the company to help them when they need it for an emergency. It's not worth it. ES pay is capped and you're not allowed to train more than 2 people during shift hours, you're not compensated your ES shift pay on top of your training pay if your training you're not on an ES shift you're not getting paid extra. Unpaid holidays for P/T and Perdiem workers. Most senior staff get fired right before retirement.

Pros

Good starting pay as long as you don't get assigned "additional duties". Free continuing education.

Cons

Lack of available hours depending on location. Lack of meaningful benefits to part-time workers. Lack of support from upper management. Dead-end job unless you "know someone" to help you get a promotion. Does not adequately recognize employees for their hard work. Rampant favoritism. Not a great job unless you are a College Student looking for a part time job in Health and Wellness
