Pros

Not a difficult job. Cool General Manager who is absolutely excellent at what he does. Free membership, nice coworkers.

Cons

Very low pay for the amount of stress/pressure. Corporate is terrible, rude and arrogant, The club constantly has broken machines, and corporate goes there to micromanage employees (the color of shoes they wear, the type of chair they sit on, all kinds of irrelevant things) but never fix anything at the club. The personal training there is a huge scam, we constantly had customers threatening to sue the company because of that. Front desk staff is the most overworked with the lowest pay. No safety for female employees who close the facility late at night. Bathroom stinks often not because the cleaning staff doesn't do their job but because of the plumbing situation at that club.

Pros

Free access to the gym?

Cons

Pressured/forced to come in early without pay. Overwhelming amount of responsibility. Told not to take 10 minute paid breaks. Threatened job security over small things. Continuously adding new responsibilities, tasks, requirements for minimum wage. Taking commission if a payment declines or cancelation within 2 months of earning commission, it is subtracted from your pay or future commission.
