Pros

The continuing education and learning modules you have to do when beginning your employment are extensive and useful to the career. The managers help you set goals, encourage further education, and teach you how to achieve the number set by the both of you. There is possibilities of buiding a solid carrer with them.

Cons

At the location I was at, there was bias towards women trainers and trainers there for years getting cherry picked leads that were inquiring about training. The onboarding wasn't consistent from employee to employee, at least in my department. I go a notice I quit, but never did. I was on unemployment during a furlough because of covid. Since I was on furlough, I decided to get my torn rotator cuff repaired. The manager called me and I told them I was having surgery in a few days and said, "Ok, let us know when you are better to come back." I said, OK", and that was that. Next thing I know a month later, my unemployment stops. Then 2 months later in December (Merry Christmas), I got a letter from them thanking me for my service and that my employment was terminated (due to voluntary quitting-not letting them know, I was going to be out for surgery. WOW. I was locked into minimum wage until a few very difficult goal numbers and milestones were achieved, which would of been a lot easier if I didn't have to find EVERY new training client myself.

Pros

Free Membership Cool employees Discounts on services

Cons

They don’t pay anything, and the CEO should honestly be ashamed. If employees were paid properly, there wouldn’t be so much drama and tension in the workplace. Communication is terrible because management doesn’t even seem to care — probably because they’re getting crumbs too. Spa management was dreadful, and the demotion was necessary. How do you fail to have people booked during major holidays when the money and clientele are clearly there? There was no structure, no leadership, and no motivation for employees to succeed. Having a successful spa for 3 years and coming into this environment I was not impressed. No growth, no support, no appreciation. Loved the members tho! And S/O to Leemar, Virgil and Dr. Hayden love them down!
