1.6I invested nearly seven years at Massage Envy and held positions working at the front desk, managing the front desk, and as a licensed massage therapist, and leaving was not a decision I came to lightly. Working in multiple positions with Massage Envy provided me with the experience and knowledge that when a therapist is injured, and requires a temporary schedule change, time is of the essence and it is as simple to resolve as making phone calls to clients to reschedule their appointments. There is never any “reworking” or finagling required and projecting this undue hassle on the injured therapist is highly unprofessional and unreasonable. The treatment of therapists caused me to sever all ties with this organization I once touted. After being injured due to management’s ignorance I could no longer endure any further disrespect or damage to my reputation or health as a therapist by working for such a place and my only option was to salvage what I could of my career as a licensed massage therapist.
I have received no response to my resignation email which was sent to the Massage Envy clinic email address, the clinic manager, the therapist manager for the Massage Envy clinics in the area, and the owner/franchisee of the Massage Envy clinics in the area; this is entirely in keeping with the poor practices of the management staff I worked under.
UPDATE:
I retired from the massage business due to injury sustained at Massage Envy. After close to four months of performing no massages, being denied unemployment (since I chose to leave,) and being denied workers compensation (since my injury was attributed to “overuse” and not a single incident,) I started a new massage job at an amazing business, but after my very first session I was in severe pain again. According to the orthopedist I saw I should not perform any further massages, require physical therapy to begin with, and eventually may require shoulder surgery.
2.5I've only worked for ME for about 4 months but it's long enough for me to see how much they don't care about not only their employees, but their customers as well. I get paid minimum wage, which is understandable because the location I work at is not very busy. However, we share a manager with another location near by and that manager never seems to want to get anything done. I have customers calling regularly talking about how they just want to get a hold of a manager but she never returns their phone calls or emails. Some members have reported turning in cancellation forms for their memberships but still being charged even six months later. I've even heard from other employees that they have witnessed the manager literally yell and scream at customers who irritated her. This manager is long gone, but the real problem here is that the owner knows all of this, and doesn't seem to care. The manager left of her own accord, not because the owner fired her or even talked to her about her behavior. Multiple times I tried to get a hold of the manager (she spends a total of three hours a week at our location) and she wouldn't answer the phone or text me back, so one day when I needed a quick response to a question I emailed the owner who got back with me promptly. Not ten minutes later did I get a call from the manager who yelled at me for "bothering" the owner. Well, I hate to break it to you, but since YOU never respond, I went above your head like anyone else would. The assistant manager does less than nothing and gets mad when you don't clean up after her. No leading by example. The perks here are essentially zero as well. I've never had a real massage, and I'd like to be able to recommend a therapist to customers and know what I'm talking about, but in order to get a free massage, you have to sell an unreal amount of product and memberships in a month's time. Don't waste your time here.
