      Equinox Marketing: It's not fitness, it's a terrible company.

      Pros

      The free gym membership is incredible, but not worth it in the end. See below...

      Cons

      On my second day at Equinox marketing, 3 of my team members resigned. In 10 months, that number grew to 15. There is that saying, "people don't quit companies, they quit their bosses," and that couldn't be more true in this case. Management is terrible and there is no room for growth -- which, surprise surprise, is why the majority of great talent is leaving. Word to the wise: STEER CLEAR if you want to gain experience in innovative and/or digital marketing. Even if you want a good brand on your resume, it's best to look elsewhere. Pay is terrible. Please note: I say this having not had the worst experience at Equinox. I got out while the going was 'good,' so to speak. Equinox's new president may turn things around, but she's got a long, long way to go (we're talking years).

      Pros

      * Free Membership and Khiel's products in the locker rooms * Great Co-Workers! * Learn a lot about fitness * Fun club atmosphere * Makes you want to be fit and healthy

      Cons

      * Feeling disposable * POLITICS - yes politics are at every job but it sucks when managers are handing some people clients and some people like me never get help * FLOOR SHIFTS!!! walking around for 4 hour time blocks, picking up sweaty towels for $8 an hour makes me feel degraded especially when I came in with a cert and experience * The ramping process, going to class handing in all sorts of paper work, endless meetings and e-mails * LOW PAY - when I train private I charge $75 and get to keep it, I can wear what I want and I don't have to submit my programs to anyone; with Equinox as a Teir 1 trainer I get $23 a session so that means when someone purchases a 12 session pack for $1032 I only get $276 of that!! * Uniforms- enough said * It's always an uphill battle when you work on commission, no matter where u are in the company u can't get comfortable you will always be looking for new clients * and sometimes the members are bitchy and think they're entitled to so much...but that just might be NYC
