Pros

If you're willing to work hard and utilize all the earning opportunities, there's a good bit of money to be made working at Life Time.

Cons

It seems that as more time goes on, the company's main focus is on making more and more money and less on the quality of training or the well being of its staff. I have seen awful things being instructed via trainers to clients that are paying top dollar. I have seen trainers hired who aren't even certified to train. Managers have told trainers they don't care if they are good trainers, "just sell training". I have heard management tell staff that working out was not allowed if certain revenue goals aren't being met. In fact, staff was told they were not allowed to leave the building for a break if certain revenue goals weren't being met. During my time there, I saw staff come, work out less and gain weight under the stress of the extreme revenue producing pressure and lack of work life balance. Many staff would leave less healthy than they were when they started at Life Time. This goes completely counter to their "healthy way of life" motto.

Pros

Free Membership Cool employees Discounts on services

Cons

They don’t pay anything, and the CEO should honestly be ashamed. If employees were paid properly, there wouldn’t be so much drama and tension in the workplace. Communication is terrible because management doesn’t even seem to care — probably because they’re getting crumbs too. Spa management was dreadful, and the demotion was necessary. How do you fail to have people booked during major holidays when the money and clientele are clearly there? There was no structure, no leadership, and no motivation for employees to succeed. Having a successful spa for 3 years and coming into this environment I was not impressed. No growth, no support, no appreciation. Loved the members tho! And S/O to Leemar, Virgil and Dr. Hayden love them down!
