Pros

I loved my co workers and alot of the members there as well. My job was basically my second home and I actually usually loved being there.

Cons

Members that don't read the agreements and get mad at you. Drama. Owners that will fire you for basically no reason. They say it's the "judgement free zone" but they will call their employees fat and sometimes even fire them for it. They also play favorites. They didn't fire a manager who almost got them sued for sexual harassment yet I got fired for "not greeting people" which was a complete lie.

Pros

You get a Free blackcard membership.

Cons

Poor management planning on all fronts; hiring, firing, scheduling, daily tasks. Extreme expectation of unpaid labor. Was asked multiple times directly and bluntly to work for free for 40 hrs a week for 4 years on top of my paid 30 hrs a week. There is effectively no training for the following roles; front deck, team lead, assistant manager, general manager. Front deck has zero. All other role's "training" material are just buzzword soup packets and references to 3rd party podcasts or internal corporate "books or podcasts" from workers with no qualifications on the subjects their speaking on. Expextation to endlessly work and give more. If all tasked where done, you would be ask to redue them again, endlessly, until your shift was over. No hourly rate adjustments for increased workloads. Repeatedly pushed to lie to customers to make sales and keep costumers paying for a membership.
