Pros

There are no Pros at this company.

Cons

Don't let the dangling carrot of high-pay entice you. From the start, I was overwhelmed with too much work to do, without proper training, and brought it up to my manager several times. That person tried to coach me that it's just the growing pains of starting out and it will get better. It didn't. EVERYONE wants something from you, when you haven't even "broken in" to your job duties. There is no respect from managers and staff members-AT ALL. No professionalism AT ALL. You work LONG, hard hours, and when you leave to take a quick break, you're berated in front of everyone upon returning to embarrass/humiliate you. Everyone acts like they're your boss. One person tells you to do one thing, then someone else who used to work with the company, but is now contracted, tells you to do something else at the same time! You put your foot down and stand up for yourself, and everyone says you have a bad attitude or are being confrontational all of a sudden. It's a mafia mentality where managers send someone else to do their dirty work, leaving their hands clean. Especially when they APPEAR friendly with everyone else. THERE IS NO WORK/LIFE BALANCE. NO PERSONAL TIME. E.g. 10 days for Maternity Leave?!!! For a "Healthy Way of Life"??!! No thank you! I've been screamed at, psychologically abused, and downplayed by management for claiming I was being bullied. THIS COMPANY IS A CULT!! If you have a family, DON'T WORK HERE. If you want to start a family, DON'T WORK HERE. If you're engaged, DON'T WORK HERE. If you love your single life outside of work, DON'T WORK HERE. Check your paycheck every time you get paid, because some managers can't even remember how to plug numbers into basic middle school math formulas. VERY little oversight from corporate on financial responsibility. You will be working night and day, and be worn out BEFORE you're a month in. THIS IS A CULT. THEY WILL NOT CARE ABOUT YOU. YOUR FAMILY WILL NOTICE YOU HAVE CHANGED and you have become more anxious and stressed. STAY AWAY FOR YOUR HEALTH AND MIND. THIS IS A CULT!!

Pros

Free Membership Cool employees Discounts on services

Cons

They don’t pay anything, and the CEO should honestly be ashamed. If employees were paid properly, there wouldn’t be so much drama and tension in the workplace. Communication is terrible because management doesn’t even seem to care — probably because they’re getting crumbs too. Spa management was dreadful, and the demotion was necessary. How do you fail to have people booked during major holidays when the money and clientele are clearly there? There was no structure, no leadership, and no motivation for employees to succeed. Having a successful spa for 3 years and coming into this environment I was not impressed. No growth, no support, no appreciation. Loved the members tho! And S/O to Leemar, Virgil and Dr. Hayden love them down!
