Pros

One can make their own schedule, friendly staff, free gym membership, and they don't micromanage the trainers.

Cons

Cronyism was my biggest turn-off. No base salary. $8.25 per 1/2 hour session of training, and their 1/2 hour training sessions run from $45-$49 depending on how many times the client wants to meet w/ you... that's expensive for most people. No structure. I couldn't sense that the trainers cared about their clients. I was told by one trainer that training was simply, "pumping blood into the muscles". Yes, but no: not all muscles are the same and one needs to realize that there are optimal training parameters for different goals. One doesn't get much benefit from lifting a load 25 times and still leaving 5 reps in the tank per set (you know who I'm talking about).

Pros

The actual FIELD leadership is awesome.

Cons

WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW: The job posting claims you'll find "a highly energetic and collaborative team" and "a management team that cares about your professional development." This is not what I experienced. I experienced inconsistent treatment, favoritism, exclusion, and a complete absence of the professional management standards that any HR function should model. If you're interviewing with this company, ask specifically about management style, equity in how employees are treated, and what the actual discipline process looks like in practice. Don't accept reassurance. Ask for specifics. I do not recommend EoS Fitness as an employer, particularly if your manager works under this current HR leadership. The risk to your career, wellbeing, and financial stability is not worth it!!
