Pros

One of the best fitness certifications in the industry. You can know with confidence that you're working for one of the bests and that makes you feel good. You can make $100k, IF you can hit the monthly sales goals.

Cons

There has been tremendous change here, mostly in terms of sky rocketing sales goals and what is expected of you as a sales person. Marketing and Sales do not communicate and it seems they almost work against one another. The worst thing about this place, there is no communication between leadership and the sales force. Management never owes their failures and rarely takes responsibility for their actions.

Pros

Decent benefits Hybrid WFH schedule Some really great direct managers

Cons

Chaotic and disorganized, with old outdated backend systems. Work performance and output not generally recognized: people who do very little work are often paid the same, or more than people who do double or triple the workload, and are allowed to continue with the company while other shoulder the load. Once you are on a team or part of a BU - good luck making a move to another team or BU. The place is a revolving door for a lot of positions, but once you learn a skillset they are unlikely to allow a move. The sales team runs this place, so be prepared to be bullied constantly by them, even when you are told to gatekeep.
