Pros

The loyal members and pay per class.

Cons

Poor leadership’s, condescending, lacks the ability to communicate professionally. Oftentimes talked down to but it’s framed in a way that makes it sound that it’s part of lifetimes guidelines to be treated poorly. Passive aggressive behavior. The worst management I’ve worked under and the find ways to make you look like you’re the problem but then you figure out that it’s not just you who’s being treated this way.

Pros

1) Free Food/Drinks 2) Free gym membership 3) You'll gain the knowledge on how to run your own business without actually running your own since its owned by Lifetime. that being said, use the knowledge that you gained and become successful elsewhere, it'll take years for you to move up.

Cons

1) No work/life balance 2) Unrealistic sales expectations 3) lowered employee discount from 30% to 15% 4) Looking just to take the members money. 5) Revenue is dept based... so a billion dollar company acts like they don't have enough for payroll so you'll get screwed over covering shifts instead of hiring 1 more person. 6) Too cheap to promote, I didn't even get a raise for my anniversary, and my old facility would rather pay someone on a depts salary than General Managers salary, but give GM responsibility, and unfortunately the fool took the position.
