Pros

Amazing stretch practioners and clientele

Cons

Inexperienced franchisee, the owner does not care about the well-being of employees. No benefits which is challenging due to the immense physical demand. The owner of this franchise makes promises in the offer letters and does not adhere to the agreement. Many employees have left the company due to not receiving money that they were owed. You are at risk of not receiving your final paycheck if you leave the company before 6 months without notice. The owner will stonewall you if you attempt to discuss something that she doesn’t want to talk about. Extreme lack of presence from the owner and limited operations training. Franchisee is not trained on stretch techniques and protocols & has no background in the field. Lack of accountability and staff are underpaid.

Pros

Co workers are cool but management dislikes when ur friends with your co workers

Cons

If you’re looking for a workplace that respects your time, communicates clearly, and values its employees—this is not it. Leadership is a major issue here. There’s a noticeable lack of professionalism, including instances of being spoken over, having words put in your mouth, and being talked down to instead of listened to. Concerns aren’t addressed—they’re dismissed, often with “attitude adjustment” conversations rather than actual solutions. Work-life balance is essentially nonexistent. You’re expected to prioritize the job above everything else, despite compensation that doesn’t reflect those expectations. Scheduling is disorganized and inconsistent, and even when feedback is offered to improve it, it’s ignored. There’s also a clear disconnect between management and staff. Managers work standard weekday hours with no night or weekend presence, yet still criticize those shifts for underperforming—without offering support or firsthand understanding of those challenges. My final experience summed it up: a conversation with ownership that escalated into raised voices and misrepresentation of my reasons for leaving. I chose to walk out rather than continue being disrespected. There are better places to work that will treat you like a professional, not a problem.
