Pros

Work inside when it's hot and you get two days off a week with one being a weekend day. You can meet a lot of good guys that are pro's and trying to make it in the business. The training is good especially if you are a new teacher.

Cons

It is a job with very little integrity. The company could really care less about its employees or clients. All they care about is making the next sell and how much money they can drag out of anyone's pocket. The manager in South Florida is the worst I have ever worked for. I saw 13 employees rotate through the market in a 2 year period all because of the manager for the Southeast market. Management at corporate will not fire him because his numbers are good and that is only because he will walk all over his employees to make a sale and make himself look better. The pay is an hourly rate of about $12 and commission that the manager can give out at his discretion. After putting 3 years into the company they refused to pay me for my last month of commission because they said it was up to their discretion. The insurance benefits are terrible. There is no career path. All is all I just wouldn't recommend anyone to work in the southeast Florida market until they get rid of the manager. I really don't expect the southeast Florida market to be around too much longer as they have lost money for the last 5 years.

Pros

Depth of info, personality of teachers, setting the teaching occurred in.

Cons

Final testing was extremely stressful and the time I thought was a little bit short to get done 30 questions.

Pros

Great atmosphere, lots of learning opportunities, and staff willing to help from all over the country.

Cons

Falsely advertise what you can earn, in no other profession or field of service do you provide 100% of the service and get 4% of the pay. I get you owe them something for providing equipment and you’re essentially renting a bay from them all day but 96% is ridiculous. Everybody says great work-life balance but it’s just because you have a consistent schedule. Was the worst work-life balance I’ve had in any facet of golf and I’m a Class A member and have worked in golf going on 12 years.
