Pros
By far the best pro is being able to utilize the gym and using your employee discount at the shop. That being said, you can get a better paying job elsewhere (and just pay for membership) and buy stuff at nordstom rack.
Cons
Life is great at Equinox for a short while. Pretty soon you begin to realize how much Equinox does not live by their values. Front Desk staff are constantly looking at these "values" on screensavers placed on the desk. Things like "open and honest communication" are not a thing here. Management will send emails from noreply addresses. When getting hired you are told you get 40% everything - not true. Discounts vary from 0-40%. They pay is very sad for a company that charges their members so much. As a front desk manager I was always forced to short staff the desk so that we would stay under the "budget", which no matter the month would always decrease. It is hard to hire any good talent when they are being payed $9. When I wanted to give an employee a raise, it was either denied or only increase by literally pennies. I have never been at a company that treats its employees like they are disposable. When Equinox HQ does something wrong, it is the front desk that has to answer the phone, not our CEO.
