Pros

Free gym membership. Other front desk associates were nice and fun to be around. The dress code was casual and allowed for trainers and basketball shorts.

Cons

Poor communication between management and front desk. Management supervised via webcam and would constantly call in to employees to complain about job performance. Over the 6 months I was there, they shifted more and more work away from sales and housekeeping to front desk with little to no training on proper procedures. Pay is abysmal. Managers were hard to request help from. They wouldn't call back on customer complaints, and left us to tell the customer some excuse as to why they were not being helped.Equipment would break down constantly and management would give us no information on progress of repairs for when customers came up and complained to us. We were left up there having to say "I don't know when it will be done."

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.
