Pros

You get lots of reps (repetitions) of teaching. Great if you are starting out and want to see if you are good at it

Cons

2 year non compete clause. First year, 7 pto days outside of Christmas, NYE, Memorial Day, Labor Day, 4th of July, Thanksgiving. 5 percent commission. Coaches clean the entire center including the bathroom after every shift.

Horrible Pay and False Advertisement of Salary

Certified personal coach

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

"Paid" Holiday's off... more like will use up the very little amount of PTO we earn on the holidays. The salary range is not accurate, guys that have been there for 10+ years were still making $13 an hour. You will also have to work weekends with no extra incentive pay. Some of my coworkers were nice, but nice doesn't pay the bills.

Cons

Grossly underpaid. You can make more at McDonalds. Owner of Austin store is extremely immature and unprofessional. Also there is zero upward mobility, you will be stuck at a measly $12 per hour with very small bonuses. BTW taking a day off is a crime there as well! Do not plan on having a social life, that's illegal at golf tec.... sorry GOLFTEC! STRAIGHT to golf jail!
