Pros

Free membership, meeting new clients

Cons

Save yourself the time and stress of working here. Low pay, management who doesn’t listen to employees concerns, money hungry sales tactics including lies for sales. Sales is actually every role where you don’t feel like you have time to be a sales person. Micromanagement. They promote work life balance but will always ask you to come in. There’s barely any support if you can’t come in. Upper management talks badly about staff and one another. They’ll blame staff for lack of sales instead of listening to the constant complaints. RUN THE OTHER WAY.

Pros

Use of facilities - that is the only benefit.

Cons

I want to be clear I am not speaking on behalf of all Sweathouz locations. I am only speaking on behalf of my experience in San Francisco - NOT - Colma, Daly City, CA. I understand this is a franchise and not all management or lack of management is the same so please keep this in mind if you are looking to work here. My experience here proves not everyone is mature enough to work in management and often will put friends or people they "trust" in positions of leadership when really they need therapy. No pun intended. Essentially management wants young and often college students to hire so they can easily manipulate and bully them into working EVERY I Mean EVERY Single day under non livable wages and less than ideal working conditions. They will then complain about your work ethic when they are literally grinding you to the bone with no breaks during a scheduled shift, no adequate break rooms, or even a safe place to rest during required 10 minute and 30 min unpaid lunch breaks. How is this legal in California??? I encourage everyone when applying for a role ask about the culture and how long employees stay. If the facility has been open for less than 6 months and they already have completely new staff that is a major red flag. If you are looking to supplement income don't expect flexibility but if you want something for a short time then yes work here. But dont expect to be treated kindly by anyone. Unrealistic sales expectations with shady tactics. Also they don't pay their employees fairly or accurately. Often accusations with unreported and innaccurate wages. Also I experienced complete loss of paycheck over a "processing error". Also management at the Marina location will lie about sales goals resulting in smaller sales bonuses administered to the full staff. Or simply they will "forget" to enter data and then lie about it. Also management is high key racist only wants to hire young females and have certain appearance standards which are really discriminatory.
