Pros

My journey with Life Time has been awesome. Started as a Membership Advisor and 4 months later was Membership Engagement Manager and by the next 4 months was the General Manager of a brand new facility. I love what Life Time offers with the most innovative equipment and facilities not to mention the best training Ive ever received. The benefits are great, employee 401k, employee stock purchase programs and paid time off.

Cons

The company is very aggressive with Year over year goals and increases.

Pros

Decent pay. Fun environment. Free membership. Nice people/members. Good start out of college.

Cons

50-60 hours a week if you want to get paid well. They want a ton of sales and you to retain everyone. They don't like when you sign up bad quality members who will leave, but when you turn some people away, they get mad. It is a no win situation and if you want the life sucked out of you, work here. There is also no respect for their employees.
