Pros

Great members Clean environment High end fitness facility

Cons

Overpriced to members Underpaid and undervalued employees Poor management and branding High turn over Hiring under trained instructors This salary estimate is way off. I work 10-15 hours per week at the highest pay rate available in my department, with no chance to earn more. After taxes on average I take home less than $2000/month that's $24,000 a year. No where close to $91,000!! They do not have the clientele to support one instructor making that much. Our studio on average has 2-3 instructors scheduled in at one time, and no one's schedule is completely booked. Don't know anyone that's making $91,000 from Equinox Pilates.

Pros

Free Equinox membership. Easily one of the biggest perks. You get access to a premium gym that normally costs hundreds of dollars per month. Health and fitness environment. You're surrounded by people interested in wellness, and many coworkers are into fitness. Customer service experience. Great resume builder if you're moving into hospitality, sales, banking, or corporate roles. Professional atmosphere. Equinox expects a polished appearance and high-quality service, which can help build professionalism. Networking opportunities. Members often include business owners, executives, and professionals in West Palm Beach. Relatively straightforward work. Most duties include greeting members, answering phones, checking members in, updating accounts, and keeping the lobby organized.

Cons

Pay is relatively low compared to the expectations and cost of living in South Florida. Many employees cite compensation as a downside. Can't call out sick.
