Pros

- offices are conveniently located at the doorstep of East Croydon Rail Station

Cons

- Team is understaffed and workload is excessive for the typical 9-5. I was required to work until 9pm at times in order to complete the work. The reporting managers did not allow extra pay or extra holiday time in recognition of the extra hours worked, which was highly unreasonable. - The reporting finance managers were uptight and disrespectful to those below in the hierarchy which made it a very unpleasant place to work - Promises made during the interview were undelivered once I accepted the offer. - Very unprofessional place to work. When mistakes are made, management have no shame in swearing at colleagues to highlight faults made, which was highly inappropriate for a listed company.

Hi there, Thank you so much for taking the time to leave your review. I am so pleased to hear that you feel supported by your management teams and that we are keeping you well informed with the information you need to get the best out of your experience at TGG. Thank you for your feedback regarding the communication of the bonus scheme, I will ensure this is fed back to the relevant people. With regards to development plans, we have a great Coaching for Performance framework for discussing and identifying your development goals and I encourage you to discuss this with your GM if these conversations haven't already taken place. We have also recently re-launched our fantastic AGM to GM development programme to support our teams in taking the next step in their career journey with us. All the best Rachel

Pros

Staff are great and helpful always to help grow business and grow us as people and PTs. The members are great fun and easy to get along with.

Cons

The gym are making the PTs charge to much rent and should provide them with a little incentive to be able to earn money to work for them.
