Pros

Overall good colleagues to work with. You get to set your own schedule-ish, excluding team meetings, which can get a lot, but it is manageable. You get to make an impact in people's lives! You can work independently for the most part. The company encourages growth and learning and is invested in your training!

Cons

The company is still growing so there's a lot of change. They assigned managers on who is hitting KPIs but while coaching and managerial duties can overlap, a good coach doesn't necessarily make a good manager. Micromanaged - there has to be a better way to foster collaboration without micromanagement. Perhaps this is unique to the industry and job? At the time you had to manage 42-52 clients aka accounts so it is a huge workload especially if you're someone who likes to place more quality in client-centered relationships. 90% of the coaching team struggled with work-life balance which is ironic for a health coaching company. Holiday system was a bit tough - only 2 weeks of holiday per year.

Pros

This company really cares about people, whether that be their customers or employees. I've worked in several work environments and this is by far the BEST one!

Cons

I really can't think of one.

Pros

What makes Body Smart stand out against other health & fitness companies is not just the results we get with our clients, it's the company culture and working with a likeminded team. I've worked in many high end & well known gyms & fitness companies in London and none come close to what Body Smart has to offer as a service and a place to work. You are encouraged to contribute and to come up with ideas to drive the business forward. You're challenged on what you say and what you do so growth is inevitable (which I love because then you're always improving!) The flexibility and remote work is a pro for sure, but on the list of pros it's further down. Being part of a company that's passionate about women's health & cares for their staff is the real pro! The work is challenging - it's definitely not a clock in and clock out job - so 100% is required.

Cons

I guess the only real con is that due to remote working I don't get to see everyone on a daily basis, compared to if you were in an office (or gym in this case) But that is made up with weekly team meetings!
