Pros

- Flexible schedule as a trainer for the most part. (You have shifts, but as a commissioned employee they can't make you work specific hours.) - Good way to learn the basics of being a trainer: Client management, programming, and sales/marketing yourself as a trainer. - Time you spend with your clients is amazing, you actually do make a difference in their lives and you get to see some amazing transformations as well.

Cons

- It doesn't matter how well your clients do in reaching their fitness goals, if they don't sign up for more sessions every month, the company doesn't care. - You spend hours everyday and week having "meetings" where management berates you for not hitting sales goals. - Even if you hit goals, there's always a service/product of the month they make you push on every client whether it's right for the client or not. - Level of education among trainers is hit or miss. If you see a trainer teaching something wrong, you're not supposed to help their clients. - Too much politics/high school-esque drama/cliques. You're either in the popular crowd or you're on the outside and you get no help and have to fend for yourself. - Completely commission based job, if you don't sell anything - you don't make any money. - You work all day, every day when you're trying to make sales/get clients - splits shifts, mornings and nights, weekends, and you work 18 hours on the last day of the month to try and make your department's sales quotas - No life!
