Pros

people who genuinely want to help others get fit

Cons

too many to list. Bottom of the barrel pay (unless you know someone) bottom of the barrel benefits, non-existent PTO, leaders who have no leadership (clown horns during leadership calls really insult everyone's intelligence) too much turnover for anyone to ever see results. If you aren't a VP you don't matter. working here is like roaming the halls of a high school where only the "cool kids" get what they want. Different rules for different departments. The only happy people at the corporate office are the bullies, I mean executives. This is the culture.

Pros

Nothing. Do not even think its going to be good.

Cons

Everything. Company is using software from two decades ago. Their daily company meetings are pointless. The company is ran by juice heads who are only promoted because they been with the company for awhile, not because they excel and know how to train and develop people. They run through people like no tomorrow because the pay is under industry standard.
