CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Lots of autonomy, flexibility and general hands off work environment as management. Opportunity to continuously improve and potentially make as much money as youd like. great for entry level professionals looking to gain valuable leadership and operations skills.

Cons

lack of resources consistently available to run club smoothly. constant complaints from members. very limited opportunities to move up. biggest con is the company has no way of process improvement in any aspect of the business leading to problems and issues never being addressed or even remedied.
