ANYTIME FITNESS Employer Reviews

set your own schedule, 100% commission, did a lot of work for free

Anytime Fitness is like a dream come true. You can be yourself, without faking who your are. Being there around all types of people allowed me learn how to handle many personalities and cater to different needs. The family atmosphere makes things easier to deal with. The hardest part about the job is the times no one is there to help. And that leads – more... to what I enjoy the most. I love helping individuals reach their goals and see them smile. – less

Anytime Fitness prides itself on its club culture, with small private clubs and the ability to really build a relationship with all its members. Customer service is a main part of this job and it really makes managing such a great club fun and easy.

All the employees and members who I interacted with were great people. Everyone was always very up beat and a pleasure to be around.
The owners on the other hand liked to hide their scams and stubbornness with money behind a fake fun personality.

I love working with people and helping them get through their hard times, but I have to pay bills and Anytime only pays commission.
I would have clients scattered throughout the day (5am-8pm).
I have learned how to communicate and read the members. Figure out how to push them while having a good time.
The management keeps changing, which makes it hard – more... and they are not consistent with the level of the management positions.
The hardest part of the job is trying to deal with management because they are not professional.
Love helping people reach their goals and showing them fun ways to keep up with their goals. – less

I have enjoyed seeing client progress in this fun and upbeat environment! People are energetic and great to be around! My co-workers and I got along well and I loved seeing my clients every day! The hardest part of the job would be the inconsistency. Sometimes you will come into work and 3 people cancel on you in one day... And for me that would be – more... my whole day, and I would have a 30 minute drive, so it would be a waste of gas and money. The thing I liked the most would be the client's progress and the joy on their face when they saw loss in inches or pounds, or gain in lean muscle and fitness level! – less

Come in, do a workout, and train some clients. Document what type of workout you had your client do and evaluate them and see if it is helping them. Proceed to change their workout by either making it harder or easier.

This is a typical fitness facility. It is a little smaller than some others but you would never know it. It is a great space to train clients and privides adequit equipment to train with. Management and co-workers are easy to get along with and we all work well together.

These gyms are franchised, so the job will really depend on the owner, but overall it is not a great company to work for. This is great if you are young and looking to start at the very bottom level of the fitness industry.

I would work in Child watch if someone was needed there in the evenings, and in the Front office on weekends or if they needed me their. I kind of floated where I was needed. This job was a lot of fun, but I wanted to focus on school at the time when I was in Nursing.

Terrible place. Owner is clueless. Have gone through three general managers in a year. Poor pay and no advancement.

Depending on your club owner, it can be a very fun place to work. S small base salary, and depends on club size and sale for your commission.

No room to grow at the club level. Once you hit club manager, there's no where else to go.

Great gym to go to if you never have time to workout because it is open 24 hours a day 7 days a week 365 days a year so there is no excuse to not workout. Great environment to work at everyone is friendly and outgoing. The only down side of Anytime Fitness is the size of the gym. It is very small and can get crowded a lot of the time.

Everyone is excited about fitness and wellness at this gym. The other instructors are very approachable and eager to help. Management is very organized and respectful. I enjoy being able to teach members Zumba dance fitness routines.

Anytime Fitness is franchised, therefore different owners provide their own atmosphere in how they run it. I was one of the lucky ones to be blessed with such an awesome owner and management team. It has it's tough moments, trying to generate a good lead base. Biggest tip would be to internally create a fun workout environment for current members. Referrals – more... is the best, cheapest way for a company to grow. – less

A typical day at work involved making phone calls to potential members, entering in new member profiles into our system, signing new members up and giving orientations, confirming all upcoming appointments and being out on the workout floor making sure our equipment is clean and our gym presentable. I learned great customer service skills. Because of – more... this job I am confident in furthering my career and using my customer service skills to my advantage. I also learned excellent sales abilities and am extremely confident in making sale myself. My manager was wonderful. She taught me a lot and she is the one lady I look up to and will always remember when it comes to a career. My co-workers were excellent. I myself managed two, and they were very respectful and hardworking. The hardest part of my job was I was so young and being the manager of a fitness facility. I had to take on a lot of responsibility at a young age. Although it was difficult, I learned a lot from it and I wouldn't trade it for the world. The most enjoyable part of my job were my members. I built a relationship with each and every one of them. My members were what made me look forward to going to work every single day. – less

Provide customer service to members. Give tours, take and process payments. Sell memberships. Do contracts & set up accounts in both financial and check-in systems. Give member orientations. Clean & organize fitness center. Observe & review security video cameras.

I love the impact you have on members. One on one working with the members to help teach them about a healthy lifestyle.

Good gym setting. Great atmosphere to interact and train clients.
