Pros

You actively see the changes that you are helping to make in people's lives. You form a great connection with clients and become a foundation for their improvement. The job is very rewarding, and if you can manage to get enough clients in your schedule, the pay is decent as well.

Cons

I'm a student and the hours were sporadic. At the time that I was still a trainer, each client would average 4.5/week with you. At most, I only ever had 3 clients at one time, and I had to depend on them to not cancel so that I would get paid for those hours. There were times when the scheduling left an hour or two between clients, but I was too far from home to make good use of the time, so I would sit in an unused roomed and try to work from my phone or laptop. You also don't get paid for the amount of paperwork that you need to fill out each session. You get paid for 15 minutes per session, but oftentimes it could take closer to 45 minutes to do paperwork after or before a session. It was also common for trainers to get word that they had a new client with less than a day's notice. If your schedule is not up to date at all times, you run the risk of getting a client placed in any time slot that is not already accounted for after 6am. No room for advancement.

Pros

Their mission is admirable, the few customers that they do have are great.

Cons

The way the company trains and manages staff makes it difficult for employees to succeed. What they call "training" is not actual training, it’s mostly observing other trainers, with very little hands-on practice or guidance. Instead of giving clear direction, management tends to lead you along without truly helping you learn or improve. They also tend to sell you on a dream during the hiring process, painting the job as one thing, but the reality turns out to be very different. This leaves employees feeling misled and unprepared.Pay isn't great, hours are not the best, and it's not a stable job. On top of that, management often engages in gossip about other employees instead of focusing on building a supportive, professional environment. This creates unnecessary tension and makes it hard to feel secure or respected at work. Feedback tends to be more discouraging than constructive, and there is very little structured support from leadership. If the company invested in real, hands-on training, avoided misleading promises, and encouraged professionalism within management, this could be a much stronger workplace. Until then, those considering a position here should be cautious about the lack of proper training, unprofessional culture, and the gap between what’s promised and what’s delivered.
