Pros

Have gotten the chance to work with some very motivated and passionate clients, but in the commercial setting you sometimes get people that have been talked into signing up but don't really care to be there. In this case they frequently no show and it is difficult to get them excited about it if they aren't there in the first place.

Cons

Upper management/ Owners make decisions that would impact members without first seeing if there is any interest in a new program or seeing if there would be a negative opinion about a change to the club.

Pros

+ Every day working atmosphere is pleasant, fun, and overall enjoyable! + Co-workers who genuinely care about your well being and performance. Sick? You can expect to receive a get well soon card and even phone calls/text messages. Having a rough day? You can expect them to listen to your venting. Overloaded with work tasks? You can expect them to offer their hand to help ease the load. + Consistent communication. A lot can go on at one time and/or change in an instant. Everyone here is very quick to voice these happenings to help ensure everybody is up to date with anything going on! + Advancement opportunity. If you honestly deserve the reward of a promotion or a raise, you will be noticed. Work ethic is always noticed. + Building of relationships with co-workers and clientele. These are the people you not only see every day, but talk to and get glimpses into their personal lives. These people end up becoming your friends and family. It's difficult to feel "alone" while working here. + You can never be expected to accomplish a task that your immediate management could not or would not do themselves. + The club might be big but the staff is close-knit and with that comes patience and understanding with each other. If somebody begins to slip in terms of their productivity, you have your co-workers behind you in support! + Who can forget... a free gym membership

Cons

-- The occasional rude/disrespectful patrons of the club, but that comes with any and every health club/gym unfortunately.
