Pros

likeminded coworkers and good employee discount

Cons

Terrible management, would rather throw their employees under the bus than take any accountability for their poor training and support. Hostile, uptight and uncomfortable environment that prioritizes membership sales over all else. Do NOT work here as long as Ro is employed.
