Oranj Fitness Airdrie

Had a nice talk with a few ladies that work here. They are mistreated by management (mostly the owner) and in my opinion, underpaid, even though the price of classes and the memberships are extremely high. The staff that work at the front and some fitness instructors are condescending and others 'seem' overly nice from a distance as if they are trying to cover their tracks. The childcare room is the size of a walk in closet and they squish in 10+ kids from age 0-12 mixed together with only two staff members to direct the chaos. I have overheard management talking with the childcare staff and it is pure disrespect to the ladies watching our kids. They do their best having little to work with and like almost everyone working there, are clearly under valued. I have asked the ladies questions about this and they refuse to talk about it in fear of getting fired. To overhear management belittle their employees and 'coach' them in a way that sounds more like verbal abuse and harassment deters me completely from this facility. They have great retail, products and classes but something is very wrong here. The employers are not demonstrating a family within Oranj Fitness or any kind of genuine love, support or acceptance. They seem to only want to profit from their business. You shouldn't have to tell authority members to be humane and to treat everyone including the staff with respect and care. There is no need to mistreat and obsessively control your staff.
