Pros

The best thing about Eqx is that the schedule is flexible, I pretty much worked all the hours I wanted to work and took as many days off as I wanted. You also get free access to the fitness centers and the friends you can make there are very helpful as they are trainers who can help you with your fitness goals free of charge. You also get 50% everything in the store.

Cons

There is hardly any opportunity for a raise, when it was brought up it was pretty much ignored. You have to work alone sometimes for 12 hour shifts and that gets very tiresome. There is not enough recognition for the work you do.

Cons

Sales quotas can be aggressive, and there is constant pressure to hit monthly targets regardless of market conditions. Success often depends heavily on club traffic, lead quality, and location, which can make performance feel inconsistent. Long hours and weekend availability are frequently expected, especially during promotional periods and month-end pushes. Compensation can fluctuate significantly if sales goals are missed. Management styles vary greatly by club; some locations offer strong support while others can be highly numbers-driven. Administrative tasks and CRM follow-up can become repetitive and take time away from building member relationships. High turnover among advisors can create additional workload for remaining team members. Advancement opportunities exist but can be competitive and sometimes unclear. The focus on sales metrics can occasionally overshadow the hospitality and member experience aspects of the role. Corporate initiatives and promotions can change frequently, requiring advisors to quickly adapt messaging and sales strategies
