Pros

You get to teach golf lessons indoors most of the time and stay out of the heat if you are in warm climate areas.

Cons

Overall I think GolfTEC is an average company to work for. They think that they are the best job in the golf biz but I don't think that is the case. Full time there is 48-50 hrs a week before you add other special events, meetings, etc. When you are a TP, you are a salesman first, instructor a distant second. If you can sell, don't sell golf lessons, sell products in other industries where you make more than 4% commission. When you end up taking your base salary, commission split and bonus, if any, and divide it by the hours worked, you are not making that much.

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.
