Pros

Gorgeous property and a lot of amenities for families. Has a lot of potential to hire great people and have a great product for members.

Cons

Their culture is the most toxic I have ever been part of. They do not take care of their team members nor their members. Very unfortunate

Pros

Can't really think of any honestly. You get a free membership which is ok I guess but if you are working there full-time especially in the corporate office I don't know when you'd have the time to use it.

Cons

- No company culture. 10+ hour work days w/ very little recognition or reward. - Low pay - Company is growing a ton but not matching it with enough support for employees - Upper management seems to care more about expansion than the morale of the work place and the happiness of their employees - Very much "who to blame" culture - they like to finger point when something goes wrong instead of coming up with an organized, positive process on how to move forward.
