Cool people, garbage everything else

Pros

Your mileage may vary, but if you meet really cool people working there, then at least you have one decent reason to stay.

Cons

No pay rises Managers are hardly ever in the clinic and do not routinely provide feedback on your performance, making it difficult to figure out what you should keep working on. You'll have clients call you on the phone complaining about their cancelation/freeze/transfer forms not having been processed for the last two months. Then, they'll ask you when your general manager works next; and sure, you can give them information on *when* your manager is meant to be in the clinic or can give them a call back, but they hardly ever are.

As a whole, we believe franchisees aim to deliver a positive experience to their employees. We recognize that you didn't feel you received that. Locations are independently owned and operated, so the employment experience that each provides is unique. If you'd like to share any additional details with us via email to meemployeebrand@MassageEnvy.com, we'll pass them along to the franchisee.

Pros

discounts on products and massages

Cons

Confusing procedures when booking appointments for people. It is not first come first serve. Overbooking on Valentine's and many, rightfully, angry customers.
