Mangers and DH's are revenue-focused, not member-focused.

Pros

Great Facilities with various locations

Cons

Employees treated like meat. All services provided by employees are commission based, PLUS employees needs to pay ridiculous shop fees. Poor management, very strong disconnect between general managers and part time employees. Chain of command is horrible. Questions or Inquiries take days to get resolved. Management has high expectations, goals are set way to high, intending to make even more money off their own employees. Don't expect to take any days off in January, and be prepared to use your vacations for all the holidays. 7 days vacation, this includes PTO, sick, and vacation time. Very underpaid, think twice before accepting positions here.
