Life Time Fitness Employer Reviews

A typical day at work included cleaning the work environment, ensuring child safety, and playing games such as dodge ball. I learned much about child psychology, how to properly use first aid items on the job such as an epi pen, getting "eyes in the back of my head" , and how to portray a happy healthy way of life. Management is scattered and I had – more...  to perform Jobs that I was not trained for as well as jobs my manager was suppose to do. My co- workers were my employees as well as my friends, I had little to no conflict in the work environment and sometimes miss working with what I call my old "Lifetime Family". The hardest part of the job was dealing with issues presented by poor management, this is partially due to our manager being fired or leaving every 3 months or so. The most enjoyable part of the job is the relationships acquired with parents and children, many of whom I now babysit for. . – less

Very poorly ran organization. They do not value their employees very well.

As a Senior Summer Camp Instructor I was able to contribute to the mission of the company to to provide an educational, entertaining, friendly and Inviting, functional and innovative experience of uncompromising quality that meets the health and fitness needs of the entire family.

general manager does not back up department heads. not a teamplayer.
my days are booked...love my co-workers

The GM at this club had a very closed door policy, didn't want any club employee to bug him because he was too busy and just had so many things on his plate. I didn't get any real training there until after I had been there for over 2 months. So I was flying blind trying to learn policy, procedure and spa operations. The GM basically told me the SPA – more...  didn't make the club any money, it usually broke even and was just there as a perk for members, with that, he could care less about it. I was struggling with employees, the computers, closing procedures ... he could never get any answers for me. When I finally got some training, over 2 months into my job, I was trained for 2 days. For all of the procedures to learn, that was not nearly enough. About 2 weeks later he fired me. I was so relieved! That place was a nightmare. I worked about 50-60 hours a week, constantly stressed. Our manager meetings consisted of him yelling and cussing at us. What a misery. It's too bad, I was so looking forward to a career with LFT. Thankfully I was able to stay home with my son for a few weeks until we decided to leave Texas. – less

Good job. Friendly staff due to location changes time to move on. Typical day of work includes greeting member maintaining client relationships posting players member statistics online. Making sure basketball league runs smoothly

Exciting members and employees motivating others to work hard.

Great people and a great place to work. It's like a small resort.

I loved the job but once I realized how to be a business man and understand how compensation works, I realize I am better off at a new place. It was a great first job out of college.

met many people in the company that had high ethical values and continued to further their educations, and encourage it with peers.

Ensured that all of your staff and peers were communicating to what had to be accomplished to meet the members of the clubs needs day to day. Envloved everything from members memberships being filed or payed to the clubs maintence with epuipment and machines. Involved one on one talking with members and attending meetings to design how to better meet – more...  the members needs. Overall maintained and help co-ordinate with the clubs administrative needs and maintence work. – less

The conditions to work in are terrible, and the employees are underpaid for their work.

I loved my job as Child Care Associate. The children brought smiles upon my face everyday. I loved how no matter what, they were always in a good mood. Our facility was great and there were so many things for us to do to keep the children entertained. My co-workers were also very dependable and caring. Everyone worked so well together and with the children. – more...  Walking through the door of the Child Care center was always a breath of fresh air because I knew that I was going to enjoy every minute of my shift. I also loved that it was a fast paced environment and there was always something different to do. – less

I started out thinking this would be a good job but I was wrong. The pay is bad, the benefits are bad, and the management doesn't care about you as long as it works for them.

I never had any problems there. I loved the environment, the members were always polite.

Management does not treat their employees well. Pay is the worst for what you have to put up for

Other employees are friendly and great to work with, even members were great to work for. Clean and organized work environment

nicegym to work out very clean and efficient. with lots of nice to people that surround you and helpful employees

I enjoy my co-workers and sometimes the environment. Unfortunately, occasionally, the GM is obsessed over the ridiculous things. The company does not pay well either. Considering how much the company brings it, it doesn't give out very much to its employees.

I didn't realize when I joined Life Time Fitness I would be expected to spend all my awake hours there working. There is no balance between work and personal life.
