I was hired on as a 3 month stylist assistant, then was put on the floor.

Pros

Free membership. The clothing we got to wear was more relaxed than a lot of salons. It wasn't all black.

Cons

Horrible management. Very unorganized and unprofessional. The stylist team was extremely clique-y. Went to the point of harassing new employees to encourage them to quit. To top it off there is no break room, you have to walk through people doing cardio to get to the break room for the entire gym. The front desk is constantly screwing up people's schedules. It was a horrible experience and the atmosphere does not promote creativity. The pay was horrible and I caught the management in multiple lies. Manipulative. The stylists are also not knowledgeable in their coloring skills, nor are they up to date on styles. Do not work here...

Pros

Life Time takes chances on young professionals. If you're smart, fast, and driven, you won't find a company that will grow your skills and career faster. For being so large, it's a relatively flat organization, so the opportunities for work in many different areas and levels are exciting.

Cons

Hours can be long. You believe in your work, and most of your co-workers do, too, so it's energizing; but if it isn't for you, there is a big risk of burn out.
