Pros

- great culture in every studio. You are welcomed in warmly and feel the tightness of the team right from the beginning. - You are pushed to excel and to grow in your knowledge and education. You're also rewarded for doing so! - The leadership is great, you always have someone who is guiding you and making sure you are growing whether it be from a Facility Manager, Regional Manager, or even just another trainer. - The clients are historically very kind and great to work with. - Company values are always pointed back to and enforced within the team and studios. - Creativity is pushed and encouraged. They may not always go with your idea, but they do encourage you to come forward with ideas and solutions to current or even potential problems. - There is always opportunity to level up. Whether it be from education or a position. You always have opportunities to show to the leadership team your skills and assets. It might not be right away, but what you put in, you'll get out of this job. - When you make a mistake, it isn't the end of the world. In fact, instead of saying "well just don't do that again" they work with you on why it happened, how it could be done differently in the future, and actually take time to develop you rather than just a harsh reprimand. - I do believe that how this company handled Covid-19 was among the best ways to handle a pandemic. They sprinted into action on how to shift our entire program online, they celebrated those who took extra time in developing essentially a brand new product, they worked hard to ensure each and every client was cared for in the way that client needed. No one was denied a "hold" or a refund and everyone was given the opportunity to try our new product for free.

Cons

- It is slow at first in making enough financially. It takes a little while to gain your way through the levels of advancement they offer. - Some of the requirements for advancement in levels are a little difficult, but can be done.

Pros

Pretty much everyone lives the core values: Teamwork, Candor, Integrity, Kaizen & World Class Customer Service. The clients and my team mates are the best! My regional manager is invested in my growth as a person, a Facility Manager, a leader and a trainer. The CEO and upper management are always looking at how they can make the trainers and the clients quality of life better.

Cons

No PTO yet- they're workin on it though!

Pros

- Studio trainers are kind, fun to work with and always willing to help - Most clients appreciate your insight and are genuinely thankful for you - Challenging workout that improves and elongates lives - Facility Managers are very team-focused and have your back - Branded Nike shirts for daily uniform (varying shades of blue) - Recent investment in branding has FINALLY given us the digital face lift we desperately needed - Certification is a mix of in-studio shadowing, written tests and practicals - You don't have to do any cold calls, Facebook marketing generates leads and you focus on referrals from your clients - Remote team of Client Experience Coordinators handle a great deal of Introductory Session communication on our behalf

Cons

- Difficult to support yourself on this pay without a partner or a second job - No PTO - No matching 401k - Hard to take time off/get shifts covered - Very high turnover - Studios are pretty shoddy and reside in run-down buildings - Repetitive meetings each week and month - Decisions made at the top (by people who haven't trained in years) disrupt your ability to work effectively and your happiness with this career - Nutrition arm of the company is a complete mess with a lack of accountability at the top - Not enough emphasis on growth and being career-minded through the Professional Mastery Program - Internal systems crash during peak hours rendering them useless and forcing studios to wing it with client settings - Reporting practices/rules are so rigid that you will be penalized for losses that aren't yours at all - Business model has just changed from 2 clients an hour to 3 so it will be very assembly line in nature and rushed, resulting in less of a relationship with the client

Your thorough feedback is vital in helping our company grow and make better decisions. So, thank you for your advice, even if it is not a positive reflection on us. When large business decisions are made many factors come into play. The biggest and most important factor is the way it will impact all of our employees. We often have to make long term business decisions that may bring challenges in the short term. However, we believe that our whole company will feel the positive impact. We appreciate your time with The Perfect Workout and wish you the best of luck with your future endeavors!
