Pros

The name Gold's Gym still has a large presence in the fitness community. There is a huge franchise following which allows for you as an employee to make outside contacts.

Cons

The Corporate side of Gold's Gym only operates 60 gyms. All the others are franchises and there is no real relationship between the two sides. The company is actually a tiny company and is ran by people not from the fitness industry hence its decline in the recent years. The gyms are spread very thin. Too many duties on the acting managers with little pay.
