PATHETIC JOKE OF AN ORGANIZATION

Pros

Free t-shirts once in a while

Cons

Work every single holiday. Low pay, miserable staff, high turnover, awful working conditions, expensive insurance plan they advertise as great (lol). You will never feel appreciated, your hard work will not be recognized. They are so full of hot air and bull S*it platitudes here its incredible. Hourly employees are screwed over. When they work overtime they don't get time and half. They get overtime based on minimum wage even if they make well above that for their rate. They say its not their fault and that people get paid as season work even though employees are full time. This whole place is a crooked sham where the company leases city land and then tales public land and sells court time and lessons to the wealthiest people in the city. It's a disgusting operation. The execs get season tickets to sporting events, lots of vacation, and tons of free stuff and the employees can barely afford to pay their rent here in New York. The clients who play here are the rudest super wealthy folks who will talk to you like you are a peasant, I mean with what they pay you here you actually are a peasant, but it still does not feel good. I have some friend who are journalists and they will be looking into this disgusting operation. Using public land to get rich and treating employees like slaves while they do. It's real ugly. GO WORK ANYWHERE ELSE!

Pros

Great facilities, well-equipped gym, decent pay if you can negotiate your hourly rate.

Cons

Very hierarchical, extremely high turnover rate, management calls tennis pros 'automatrons' for good reasons. No advancement hopes for women no matter how good of a coach you are. Disregard for core benefits - hard to afford health insurance, no paid time leave, disregard for pros time or status as a human being.

Pros

There are better places to work where you can work for honest and decent people.

Cons

Poor management in Long Island Clubs. Poor treatment of staff and members. Boundaries do not exist by manager. Many members left due to inapproptiate behavior by one particular female manager.
