equinox Employer Reviews

Equinox is second to none when it comes to staff and employee the management team are fantastic

As the shift of the day or change of the moment, I could work alone or with another collegue in a particular department of the fitness club.
The work was on shift but the starting hours in the morning was created on a resonable way and based on the personal possibilities to arrive on time at the workplace.
During the lunchtime, we covered each other.

Working in New York by far was the most exciting job. i enjoy going to work everyday. I look forward to help trained other employee and member.

Workers were told its business as usual even though a Hurricane was raging outside. Also to find a place to sleep since the MTA was shut down and we had no way to get home. I slept on the floor and used some towels as a blanket.

What I love about working at Equinox were the co-workers and learning about health. I wish there were benefits or better compensation.

My typical day at work is normal. I don't learn anything but to be really clean and organized. The management in the gym is to be the most organized you can be in the day. The hardest part of the job is that I have to be in the gym by 5:00 am.

A typical day at work for me involves greeting members as they come in the door, checking them in, making sure the front desk is clean, spotless, and stocked, and making sure the team is focused, fired up, and ready to have a fun work day.

From time to time we deal with billing issues, member complaints, purchasing personal training services, spa treatments, – more... and private Pilates sessions as well.

The management is excellent and they make sure you are constantly praised, appreciated, and on top of your game. They treat you like a family and make sure you are happy.

My coworkers are great, we have amazing synergy and we work like a team! I take charge but don't bark orders and we all get along, when something needs to be done they listen to me, and I listen to them as well. No power struggles, no issues in who's in charge, in the end we feel as though we are a team working together to provide the members the best experience possible.

The hardest part of job really isn't all that bad in my opinion. During peak hours we have members flood through the door and phones ringing off the hook. I'm an excellent at multitasking so I enjoy these moments. I answer the phone, greet, deal with billing issues, check members in, and at peak hours get members signed up for group classes.

Honestly the most enjoyable part of the job is the people. The staff I work with is so friendly, fired up and energetic, and the management team really does show concern and wants the best from you. There is no "being chewed out" or "yelled at". There are coachings, pep talks, and plenty of constructive criticism to help you understand what you are doing correct, and what needs to be improved.

This job has taught me how to take charge and be a leader without bossing people around and making them feel below me. It taught me to take pride and owner ship in the front desk and treat it as though its my own home and should be taken care of properly. Its taught me how to be quick thinking, quick on my feet, react fast, and handle a high volume of tasks in a fast but efficient and safe manner. Most of all it taught me how to work with a great team of people who have each others backs and in the end want to see each other flourish. – less

Very nice invirorment to work in coworkers where the best so fare to work with I work in serveral different location and I learn a lot about the fittness industry.

Don't work here unless you plan to have no life. The management, with one exception, was unprofessional and rude. They are very difficult people to work with. Really my worst experience ever.

The hours for this position are ridiculous and the pay is very low.

Awesome job. The staff is very friendly and welcoming. The hardest part of the job is the prolonged downtime where there is absolutely nothing to do but watch T.V.

I worked in the corporate office and have been in a corporate environment for the last 10+ years. I have never experienced worst managers in my entire career. On top of it the company does not care about its employees. The benefits are the worst I have ever seen. Working in corporate you only get 3 sick days a year. I don't even think people in the – more... clubs get that. It's really sad and can't believe that it was supposed to be the "health and fitness" industry. It sends the message that if you get sick the company really doesn't care. I have always worked hard and don't believe in abusing sick time but if you are sick you are sick...stay home...don't infect everyone else. The only good part of my position was my coworkers were really friendly and I liked the team a lot. other than that I would stay steer clear of this place. – less

There alot to do the place keeps you busy. You Learn how to communicate with people, management was alright but everywhere you go there's managers you like and others you don't co workers were great fun crowd the hardest part of the job might donee robing up with the rush hour expectancies the most enjoyable tasks are the task that involve you with – more... the guests – less

Was not for me. Easy to pick up clients but the environment is not conducive to establishing long term relationships needed for a sustainable business.

A typical day at work starts at 4:30 A.M. at which point I prepare the gym for the day. I am acting manager until 9 A.M. when the GM or AGM will make their first appearance. I handle various administrative duties throughout the day as well as tend to the members of the gym. Helping them with everything from booking a spa appointment to setting up a – more... locker contract. There is no real difficult "part of my day" because everything is old hat and other positions within the company are scarce. What I enjoy most? The members for sure! I know them and they know me. By taking the initiative and learning everyone's name, the members immediately took to me, creating a family like atmosphere. – less
