Pros

Wonderful customers at Crunch. No judgments philosophy where everyone is comfortable. Good support from management and front desk employees.

Cons

No raises for group instructors ever. Minimum wage has increased year after year for front desk employees, but group instructors never get any raises. Not even one thank you from the franchise owner. We bring in customers and keep them happy, but are completely taken for granted. I have taught at 4 different gyms for this same franchise group to help cover classes and sometimes drive 45 minutes each way just to help. We are all expected to help out the team, but not one thank you ever, even when our low class rate wages after the time we spend planning the classes and driving for a one-hour class ends up being about $5/hour.

Pros

Most of the employees easy to work with. Dawn was also great to work for. Everyone's attitudes where absolutely great... minus 1

Cons

I was told I was going to be full time. I had quit my other job because I was asked to be more flexible. Yet the schedule was a set schedule 9 to 1 . 20 hours a week 9$ an hour after 6 months I asked when will I go full time. The response was the custodian positions are only part time. Yet it was listed as full. I was told to quit my job because I needed to be fully available.. ?dawn was not the hiring person who hired me. I came here today year of 2026 because I recently saw a job posting saying custodian positions full time.?... so in here warning because its exactly what I saw when I got hired... full time..... I made 180 a week. Befor taxes. There was one trainer who told me I needed to vacuum a dust bunny but there was a man working out there i asked him it's ok to vacuum he said let me do my set. She snapped her finger and said do it now 😳...the customer got up looked at me looked at her and said I honestly want to not be at this gym any more. Then looked at me and said I know your doing what your told .
