High Caliber Company with high growth potential
Club Manager, Apple Valley Super Sport (Current Employee), Apple Valley, CA –
24 Hour Fitness is a fast growing company with an enormous amount of upward mobility for employees. The best part about this company is it's transparency and attention to employee engagement (or lack thereof). Due to the work environment, both members and team members are a delight to work with.

Not a bad job.
Personal Trainer (Former Employee), Papillion, NE –
Pros: make your own schedule
Cons: little pay and not secure
Was not crazy about the commission style of income when the work depends on the time of year if it will be good or not.

fun workplace but work was life
Club Manager (Former Employee), Sunnyvale, CA –
Pros: compensation and benefits
Cons: lack of balance in work and life
Day began at 9am typically with a conference call and ended after 8pm with a phone call to DM for daily sales totals. The hardest part of the job was making sure that all team members were focused towards a common goal. The most enjoyable part of the job was putting a team together that succeeded and worked well in all aspects.

Primary goal is sales not fitness.
Personal Trainer (Former Employee), La Mesa, CA –
I wanted to work at 24 Hour Fitness because I like fitness and teaching general health but little did I know that I have to be a sales person first and then comes the training part. I didn't like the sales pressure every month that I worked there. Managers are nice when you're making your goals but can be so mean when you are not.

Like any other gym personal training job you work when you have a client. I learned how to sell and communicate effectively. Management really helped my development. Co-workers were great. The hardest part about the job was maintaining a consistent clientele. I love training.

A fun place to work and to workout!
Kids Club Supervisor (Former Employee), Cedar Hill, TX –
Pros: free gym membership, it is like family.
Cons: not getting all the training i needed.
- A normal day is checking children in and out, cleaning the room, watching 15-40 children at a time with other co-workers.
- I learned how to make scheduals, to look in the system to check member stateous.
- Management is friendly and good. The only thing that needs work is when they promote someone, they need to train them to do their job better.
- – more...  The co-workers are awsome. They all do what they can to help you with anything they can.
- The hardest thing was not being properly trained when I was promoted.
- I enjoyed working there very much! I miss my co-workers and the people I met while being an employee. – less

The CMT program is like interview for a job for 3-6 months
Club Manager Trainee (Former Employee), Dallas, TX –
Pros: benefits, salary and working out
Cons: the upper management culture is very childish.
24 hr has a good product but if you are looking to come in directly as a CM you need to have your eyes open. You will be seen as an outsider and act like every word that you are saying is being recorded. Your coworker are looking for you to fail bc to them you were handed the prize position without having to work for it. Do not trust upper management – more...  HR will lie to you which is crazy I know. Get in with the Regional Manager from the beginning so that they will protect you. Good Luck!! – less

Membership Counselor/ Sales Representative (Former Employee), Honolulu, HI –
Pros: meeting new people
Being able to make reservations for guests and act as their own concierge was an awesome experience. Giving suggestions to what my client's needs are is what made this job fun. The feedback that I received upon conclusion of their vacation is what made me love what I was doing.

OK job if it's your first out of college or to get you through college
Personal Trainer (Former Employee), San Diego, CA (Balboa) –
Pros: set your own schedule as a trainer, get to work out a lot, good networking (clients), free gym membership, gain solid skills for future career (sales, relationship-building, networking, customer service), high energy environment
Cons: lousy pay and lousy management, clubs are filthy and germ-infested, not a lot of growth opportunities, members complain to you about everything
I was a trainer here. My manager was horrible. Probably the worst I've ever had and I am mid career now. He had no people skills and really hindered my overall experience working here.

However, I did make some good friends and there were a few good people working there that I was close with. The Club Manager where I worked at (Balboa) was a really – more...  good guy. Down to earth, great salesman, solid guy.

This is a good job to learn the initial and necessary "people" and "customer service" skills you need in a real job. However, if you're a college graduate and have aspirations in life, I highly urge you to get out of this place and fast and if you must work here, just make it temporary while you look for other work.

You can, however, make a good career if you become a "Master Trainer" and then get into management, but even then, it's still not a very glamorous management job and appears to me to be kind of a joke. Let's be honest, it's a gym.

The pay was really lousy for trainers (min. wage, plus bonus per session depending on how high of a certification you had). No matter how high of a certification you had, it really wasn't very good pay.

All in all, 24 Hour was a fun place to work. I enjoyed my experience there despite my overall negative comments. The job in itself was fun and had a lot of energy to it. You got to talk to a lot of people, it's a good opportunity to network and sell, and you get to work out a lot since they expect you to look good if you're a trainer. – less
