Pros

Great team atmosphere and great Coaches that are very passionate about their craft. Everyone is working towards a common goal. I have a great manager that is on the cutting edge for marketing strategy. They care about the individual employees and will work with you if relocation is needed or something in the job isn't met or satisfying. A growing and cutting edge company in the golf industry. The entire team listens and responds to your ideas. You don't need to be afraid of sharing your opinion and it sets up for a great environment of brainstorming, etc... Plus, you are more passionate about the strategy since you know the rationale behind it and got to contribute to it. Very much of an open office feel where you can talk with anyone about anything.

Cons

Sometimes a little too reactionary but overall no real cons.

Pros

It's always nice to help people play better golf, even while having fire breathing washed up "pros" breathing down your neck for sales. It reminds me of the movie "Boiler Room"! "We don't hire golf pros! We indoctrinate them!"

Cons

1. NO Money 2. TOO Many hours to justify point #1 3. No clear leadership 4. Crony upper management 5. Poor expectations or unrealistic 6. Lets just say, if you love charity work, this is the job for you!

Pros

Excellent client relationships Two days off per week Fair compensation for the work load If you love to teach golf, this is the job for you. Be prepared to teach thousands of individual golf lessons.

Cons

*Depending on your personality, be prepared for monotonous days. I taught for many years with this group and I highly recommend the Company yet be prepared for doing the same thing every day. The 1-2 days outdoors is a great way to break up the pattern. *You are taught to SELL SELL SELL. Many reviews show this and too many clients know this. They will see right through you if your don't build a relationship with them. You will not succeed if you can't sell the process. Awards are given for how many dollars you sell rather than how many students you got to reach their goals. Each "store of the year" is given the award basis "dollars generated" ....Granted, it is a business! *The entry level guys dont' have alot of upward potential. Depending on your market, you could be a 1 or 2 location business. If that is the case, enter the job knowing that you probably won't be the Manager at that location if there is already one in place and he/she stays on board for years. I struggled with turnover due to not having anywhere for the entry level guys to go/grow into.
