Pros

Very professional environment. All of the people you work with are cut from the same cloth out going loving and truly empathetic.

Cons

Now the members can be very particular about what they want when it comes to their experience at Life Time and may be very very rude at times do not take it to heart they are just angry and probably do not mean it. If you ask for something make sure it is in writing or it will not happen. Expect to be alone staring at a wall for the most part shifts may feel like forever if you get your job done quickly so time your tasks accordingly.

How many bad things can I fit in this review?

Pros

Free membership? Coworkers are nice (mostly)

Cons

Too many to list, but here are some: - This company does NOT invest in their employees. I'm not just talking pay (even though that is a MAJOR factor), but also training and improvement - Expect you to work ridiculous hours (10-12+ hours, 6 days a week) - You will leave there feeling undervalued and under appreciated. In the short time I spent at lifetime (I couldn't get out of there fast enough), so many employees left that clients didn't even want to waste time trying to work with a trainer because they leave so frequently. - I experienced so much shady behavior. Between sexual harassment and cutting employees hours (don't get me started on draw), you really have to reevaluate the system. At my location there were only 4 employees that have been there longer than 2 years out of a staff of over 20. It should be clear where the problems are but management seems to be blind to these issues. 60-80% turnover is EXTREMELY problematic and there should be a better way to run a business. - They will blatantly lie to you during the recruiting process. This is just part of the way lifetime likes to run its business. Don't be surprised if you are working double the hours for half the pay. - They hire people in management positions based on how they get along with other members of management, not how well they can lead a team. Don't be surprised if your manager is a lying moron. - When I first started, I was told several times it would take 18-24 months to start making a reasonable salary (reasonable to lifetime is 30k).

Pros

Fun atmosphere that encourages a healthy lifestyle. You wear uniform workout clothes to work. Free gym memberships. Employees working with children can bring their own if they are over the age of one year.

Cons

The pay isn't phenominal, but the perks are nice!
