Girl, nikki, you made me cry! I may not have a weight issue but I have serious depression and I want to live a life where I dont feel like constant shit to put it and you.are.inspiring. thank you! (I'm not even sure you're ever going to see this)
I worked at good life in 2011 after college, it was a horrible experience at the location I was placed! Although some people iv talked to said it got a lot better and they try not to over saturate certain gyms with trainers now. There IS growth in Goodlife, but I feel if you are able to start training on your own and make a living that is a way better way to do it.
The need to seriously change their branding. It looks a a retail or grocery store logo... the logo itself just turns me off. The workers shown in this video are amazing. That Zumba instructor was just so sincere and energetic.
Hey! Former top 10%, JUMP! associate here! There are no child:adult ratios as we were not classified as an actual daycare. It was referred to as "child minding" & thats how they got around the ratio & other childcare standards. If we became overwhelmed & needed help , we were told to call in one of the motivators from the front. However, they would get mad & take an obscene amount of time to actually come help. The amount of time it would take them to drag their butts to the JUMP! room could be detrimental at times. Unfortunately due to covid the JUMP program has been removed & goodlife is now mediocre-life.
Ratios depends on the state? And the age of the kids. 1 teacher for 4 babies, 1 teacher for 7 toddlers, 1 teacher for 10 preschoolers, 1 teacher for 15 school age kids in my state
Loool when you get hired there they make you read Patch's autobiographical novel. They pay next to nothing, often expect you to work for free. 2 hours of cold calls a day. 1 hour of conference calls with other clubs. They'd often drop us off in public places to harass people about coming to the gym. Each of these trips you're expected to bring back 10 "tour" appointments for the next day. The worst thing: They want you to emotionally manipulate people into joining. Even if you can get the sign up through a respectful and logical sales pitch, they instruct you to ask questions like: "How would your husband look at you differently if you lost the weight?" They want you to break the customer down. Personal trainers don't even get paid to be on-site unless they are training. Only good thing I can say about Goodlife? It was so terrible it taught me to be an aggressive and confident sales person with absolutely no shame.
Anybody else notice that the bosses on the Canadian version are so much cheaper than the US version? US bosses be like, “here’s a check for $150,00 or $20,000 with an all expenses paid vacation “ and then the Canadian version is like “here is $5,000 and more training”
@mythgreatbritain5634 shouldn't be show production at all saying give this or that..... that should come direct from the company's or the bosses.... as the company's outside Canada do.
At 42 minutes she says I'm like a million other people. That's the entire point of Undercover Boss. It's showcasing talent that's one in a million. It's showing that these people aren't prideful and don't even realize how awesome they are and it's a way for company execs to say, you're worth more than you know. While the dollar signs are emotional at times it's the human condition between white collar and blue collar that destroys that boundary.
Their responses say it all, they felt valued and validated, isn't that what we all need? Companies have no requirement to give anything extra all and yet they did.
Nope they don't I work for a municipal transit service and they have a crappy employee appreciation breakfast every year last year we had pancakes with no butter or sausage. Coffee with no milk and sugar. I just avoid it all together.
The COO made a difference to the employees who interacted with her. The COO however did not make any change that would have a material impact to the performance of the company or to the culture of the organization.
Ok. Gotta laugh. The US show here's 20 thousand for this, here's 15 thousand for that. Canada gives 5 thousand and a thank you and everyone cries. Really?! This is like a Canadian game show - here's the toaster. no don't thank us. You earned it. I'm in hysterics. Absolutely hysterical. They should have at least been given a lifetime membership. I'm on the floor! 😀😀😀😀😀
@@timothy4545 Canadian dollar is 23 cents below the American dollar. Hardly 1/3rd less. As for higher education each student ends up with an enormous debt. The reason for the disparity is far more people watch US tv than ours. Higher advertising dollars. I know why there's a disparity I just find it comical. That's all I meant.
@@Bambi-ul1tz you get it. I'm assuming - Canadian,? I still laugh when I see this. In the US they pay taxon their wins. Here we do not pay tax on lotto, casino or game shows. But just for the sake of argument, if we did pay tax, how much would we pay on a toaster? I'll bet a Pop tart costs more.
I got lost when she said she didn’t understand what the first guy was saying and that she thought he was going off on tangents. I understood everything he was saying and thought he was great
Could be just me.... but women like that more often than not tend to look at business only and hate working with men. Wanting better every day is a sign of being competitive. That guy, however, was really easy to understand and has drive that ya can't teach. Her criticism there seemed unwarranted. He's a guy that looks to move in company position. That to business people always makes them think a person want their job. The fact the other guy has to use his personal vehicle to maintain and move equipment and maintain gyms is an incredible oversight by that company too. Her skin was crawling to get outta that job
Typical of Goodlife! Not much change and not really giving back to their employees. Only giving them what helps them in the long run compared to other companies who have stepped up to really improve employee life!
One adult to 32 little kids, not even kindergarteners…..wow. And they wonder why teachers quit- former preschool teacher who quit couple years ago. I had no choice due to financial reasons
I wish I worked for this Boss I've worked for the gym where I gave my heart and soul loved every moment of it. The look on a client's face when they see the difference is priceless. But was dismissed for doing my job well .
JF Grenier I just watched this and I actually wanted to follow up on Nikki because she seems great! The gym she was at in the show was the gym I started at! Can you share her social media if that’s possible?
@@annaallen4150 I have not seen her in 3 years to be honest. She is training at place d'Orléans in Orléans Ottawa. I've been training at 10th line location so I never happened to run into her. Also, I'm not on social medias as my work hours are charged up and I happen to train later at night because of my hours so no time for social medias. Sorry I couldn't be of help. Check the place d'Orléans GoodLife.
actually, you're very wrong! I am a former JUMP! associate & we had absolutely no problem with the age range (: The only bad idea was removing the program from the gym!
Where are the JUMP! associates volunteers at?? She is overwhelmed with kids & it's the responsibility of the motivators to come in & help her. If there are no qualified motivators, the GM or AGM is meant to step in.
I must say I do like Good Life but they have some serious issues. If the gym is closing at 7 they turn off the music at 6:30 and start yelling for people to get out. The music system is turned up so low that you have to strain your ears to know if its on, biggest problem with that is people bring in speakers with rap and Indian music. Some equipment has never worked properly since day one, cables fray to the point of failure before they are fixed. The water in the cold dunk is literally green and constantly has floaters. Mens washroom and change room smells like a sewer. My gym said they would have an outdoor workout area when they opened and almost 2 years later non. The B.O. from some people in the gym will make you run in the other direction. A friend of mine got ringworm from one of the benches. People are allowed to work out in bare feet.
Painful to watch. Thinly disguised infomercial for Goodlife, and the cheapass rewards at the end were an insult to hard working employees. Hopefully they have new jobs by now.
I can't believe the people who made this show SKIPPED OVER the reactions of each individual when they seen who she really was. they chopped up the reveal so bad.and didn't even show some of them at all.
As the COO it seems that the she should have RAISED the PAY for the childcare workers so that she doesn't have to work 3 jobs. Also, the ratio of 1:32 children is unsafe; in the States, it's 1:12 so she really needs 2 assistants; not 1. This is an accident and big lawsuit waiting to happen. Recruiting members on the street is ineffective. They should go out of their way to bring in the morbidly obese and offer free tickets to members of Overeaters Anonymous and Weight Watchers where entire groups can join en masse.😜 That was funny as it is a lot of mass.
I agree! She really should have raised her wages, the girl is a single mother working 2+ jobs! That was very nice of her to give her the money for school, but maybe she could quit one of her jobs to focus on school. I had to work two jobs when I was in college and it was sooo stressful! I can only imagine if I had a child at that time . Also yes! She should not be alone with that many kids at all! That made me cringe! I am a preschool teacher and the lease amount of kids I can be alone with is eight!
alot of banks now advise clients to open a separate account for their gym memberships..due to their horrible record of double billing and continued with drawls from your account after memberships have either been cancelled or expired.....i don't give a shit about who she screws .cheap bastards,they give them exactly what the government gives them as maximum tax deductions for the business..these aren't gifts. they're tax deductions every one of them.
Boy they really dug deep in the wallet!! 5k to that girl for college lol! We’re give you a van, one that doesn’t have a/c & the windows don’t work lol!!!
@@anitahardesty2163 Brian was awesome and has the same energy the staff has at my gym but for some reason she said he goes off on tangents? I thought he was a great employee👏🔥💯👍
exactly...been watching the USA versions, and one boss have an employee 250k to buy a house as she lived in a hostel...watched another canadian one and an employee received a t-shirt haha
I do not get positive vibes from this boss. I normally do. She doesn’t feel nice, and I really didn’t buy her being a fan of kids. Not saying she can’t do her job, or she’s a bad person but I wouldn’t want to join a club she represents.
I actually visited winnipeg for 3 months from Atlanta GA. Good Life is actually a great spot. I liked it alot. Though Winnipeg is a cool small city I have never in my life experienced that Kind of polar temparatures... and seen so much snow before.
Where does Undercover boss find these shills for these companies? Do they have someone else checking the business out, looking for the one in forty that actually thinks it's a good job? Or do they tell people that they will get a nice bonus if they play along and make the company look good?
Joined Good life. What I was told was not what I got. The guy that signed me up was moved so I couldn't even talk to him face to face about his lies. Went from full service to next to nothing. And price doubled. Rip offs. TORONTO. And one of the staff treats me with contempt because I expect to get what was promised to me before singing. Let say not happy would not recommend.one more thing Jacuzzi broken for week now. Health issues can only use pool for now.
Wait they never explained a cancellation fee to me... and I agree with most of you... they are bullies and unprofessional I am currently in the process of leaving... can we sue them for not informing members about the hassle with cancellations?
Basically a lot of the Goodlife staff won't show you the ropes to help get started. They stand around doing nothing. Personal training cost a fortune. Plus there membership rate is seriously very high. $50-$70 and up. Most gyms these days costs about $25 and down. And Goodlife Fitness is charging an arm and a leg?! What's going on with this gym? By the way the don't even clean there bathroom/locker rooms.
what? 29$ is the standard all across Canada rate?? what gym are you going to? I'm sure if you asked a staff member how a piece of equipment worked they would be happy to show you as they are all members themselves.
I go to a World Gym my friend and the staff does tell you how a piece of equipment works. Goodlife doesn't. All the staff does is talk, scam and more talk. They don't give a damn in making sure you get a good work out. People have goals in mind and yet Goodlife charges them a huge fee just to meet those goals with shady personal training.
My friend broke her leg during a Zumba class at Good life fitness in BC and their first aid attendant elevated an unstable fracture, then he got her to walk on it. She then called me because I teach First Aid and I took her to emergency where it was confirmed she broke her leg. I wouldn't go there And watching Jane undercover with all the kids is disgusting. Not safe for anyone
So kaili wants to get paid more for doing her job but then she wants someone to come in and volunteer to help her do her job? Maybe they should leave her pay the same and hire more people.
all this Is very bad... people Need to make 3 job for survive... holy crap ... in my Company my staff Is not employ Is staff.. we are family and Money must be good for all.. people work for you actualy they make Money for you..you cannot live in huge house and your staff 3 work for live
So scripted it hurts to watch lol and 5 grand for school? That’s like a semester! Haha and You guys don’t care about these employees, being on this show is another marketing tool for Goodlife lol
I think it is very sad with all the money GoodLife Fitness makes. All the members they have and still the staff are under paid. I am sure Jane and Patch are not under paid. I f you want to keep good staff they have to be able to live. When Canadian company goes on undercover Boss you should watch what the US companies do for their staff stop making Canada look so dam cheap. You want to be like the US then step up all of you.
Use to love Good life but they're getting killed in my city with the other fitness clubs coming in that aren't charging as much for memberships and offer just as good if not better services.
That's hilarious. I was just telling my brother that and saw your comment. That's Canadians for you. If you see the Retro Fitness episode, the guy throws around 40k like it's nothing.
yea, like the mechanic: we are going to give you a van. sure, a nice gift, but why only to him? just give a leased compagny van to all mechanics that have to be on the road.
Just froze my account from the red deer shop. So unwelcoming. Fort saskatchewan is amazing, great people. In red deer it feels like most the staff is focused on their next steroid injection rather than making people feel welcome. They could at least say hello. Also, the steam room is always broken in red deer
This is by far one of the cheapest COO I've seen. They must not make a lot of money. She is giving them something to make her more $. That's not doing something for them, that's doing something for her pocket. WoW... Sure wouldn't want to work there.
I have watched lot's of under cover boss.This was the most cheapest one.Why call all the worker's if you not going to bother rewarding them nothing much.Shame on you.😖
Here are some things they should start fixing: Even though we all lock our lockers with valuable stuffs, there are some ppl who still cut the lockers n steal our stuffs Some of the bathrooms are nasty and they stink as hell Some of the good life fitness gyms have old n scratched up products for us to use, they never bother to buy new upgraded machines n etc. Main reason, which annoys me the most are the staffs who work at good life: Some of the staffs are assholes, don't even know how to respect the customers or members who come there to workout after their long day exhaustion from their workplace. They don't bother washing all the dirty towels n they are always out of towels for us to use, even though we paid for it for every month along with the membership. Fix all these and i will think about getting back to Good Life Fitness.
Chris - have you been to LA Fitness in Canada, $45 dollars a month for the signature club and multiple locations, $30 dollars for standard club at single location.
My takeaway was that all these gyms are crumbling shitholes where C-suite executives make employees use personal vehicles and pay them like shit, keeping all the money for themselves.
This show never ages. Assata is such a beautiful woman inside and out!
Girl, nikki, you made me cry! I may not have a weight issue but I have serious depression and I want to live a life where I dont feel like constant shit to put it and you.are.inspiring. thank you! (I'm not even sure you're ever going to see this)

Hmm, wondering if child care ratio laws are completely lax, that's way too many for one to two adults.
idk about there but around me in the US in my state daycares can have like 1 adult per 10 children or something like that.
Hey! Former top 10%, JUMP! associate here! There are no child:adult ratios as we were not classified as an actual daycare. It was referred to as "child minding" & thats how they got around the ratio & other childcare standards. If we became overwhelmed & needed help , we were told to call in one of the motivators from the front. However, they would get mad & take an obscene amount of time to actually come help. The amount of time it would take them to drag their butts to the JUMP! room could be detrimental at times. Unfortunately due to covid the JUMP program has been removed & goodlife is now mediocre-life.
@@GetLikeMe909 😕 Good grief that makes me sad. That just makes it 100x harder.

I'd totally work out with that Black Zumba trainer IYKWIM
Jeffy Ze French same af
same but not with Nikki to me she's too abrasive
Where does Undercover boss find these shills for these companies? Do they have someone else checking the business out, looking for the one in forty that actually thinks it's a good job? Or do they tell people that they will get a nice bonus if they play along and make the company look good?
Lmao truth
This lady screwed the first guy and he really was great at his job.
This is the cheapest ceo ever in the show not giving bonuses or even a company car for the maintence man
They are so cheap!!!!! I can't watch the Canadian version anymore. Diamond Resorts is top dog! He paid off mortgages!!!
Actually a cold shower is great after a workout
Hot showers stimulate blood flow which leads to fast anabolism with minimal soreness
bruh
Joined Good life. What I was told was not what I got. The guy that signed me up was moved so I couldn't even talk to him face to face about his lies. Went from full service to next to nothing. And price doubled. Rip offs. TORONTO. And one of the staff treats me with contempt because I expect to get what was promised to me before singing. Let say not happy would not recommend.one more thing Jacuzzi broken for week now. Health issues can only use pool for now.
Wait they never explained a cancellation fee to me... and I agree with most of you... they are bullies and unprofessional I am currently in the process of leaving... can we sue them for not informing members about the hassle with cancellations?
I had to make and pay a stop payment to my bank and close out that account
You have a 50\50 shot. There is always a way for it to work their favour.
Believe me folks Goodlife Fitness is a really bad gym to be a part of. Been a member three times, all three times... pure hell.
Wayne Bose can you elaborate on why it's bad?
Basically a lot of the Goodlife staff won't show you the ropes to help get started. They stand around doing nothing. Personal training cost a fortune. Plus there membership rate is seriously very high. $50-$70 and up. Most gyms these days costs about $25 and down. And Goodlife Fitness is charging an arm and a leg?! What's going on with this gym? By the way the don't even clean there bathroom/locker rooms.
what? 29$ is the standard all across Canada rate?? what gym are you going to? I'm sure if you asked a staff member how a piece of equipment worked they would be happy to show you as they are all members themselves.
I go to a World Gym my friend and the staff does tell you how a piece of equipment works. Goodlife doesn't. All the staff does is talk, scam and more talk. They don't give a damn in making sure you get a good work out. People have goals in mind and yet Goodlife charges them a huge fee just to meet those goals with shady personal training.
My friend broke her leg during a Zumba class at Good life fitness in BC and their first aid attendant elevated an unstable fracture, then he got her to walk on it. She then called me because I teach First Aid and I took her to emergency where it was confirmed she broke her leg. I wouldn't go there
And watching Jane undercover with all the kids is disgusting. Not safe for anyone
So kaili wants to get paid more for doing her job but then she wants someone to come in and volunteer to help her do her job? Maybe they should leave her pay the same and hire more people.
Ikr? I used to do childcare and noone could pay me enough to go go back.
I work with Jane! She's super sweet! Absolutely love her!
Tank Tonka tell her she's CHEAP!!!!
@@JF32304 lool
all this Is very bad... people Need to make 3 job for survive... holy crap ... in my Company my staff Is not employ Is staff.. we are family and Money must be good for all.. people work for you actualy they make Money for you..you cannot live in huge house and your staff 3 work for live
miserly boss Undercover Boss hehe
I have an assignment due on this in 20 hours
feels
So scripted it hurts to watch lol and 5 grand for school? That’s like a semester! Haha and You guys don’t care about these employees, being on this show is another marketing tool for Goodlife lol
this is awesome
Pro tip lose the scooters, normal people do not ride them indoors.
The difference in introductions between us and Canada says à lot about culture...
Undercover Boss should try to do this with 24 Hour Fitness -US
I know there is a Canadian version but, there is also an American version that has been airing for a while.
omgggggggggggggg @3.11 is our house!!! woodward ave ahahahahahah. did jane really live there?
That pond is still there!!!!!!!!!
I think it is very sad with all the money GoodLife Fitness makes. All the members they have and still the staff are under paid. I am sure Jane and Patch are not under paid. I f you want to keep good staff they have to be able to live. When Canadian company goes on undercover Boss you should watch what the US companies do for their staff stop making Canada look so dam cheap. You want to be like the US then step up all of you.
parents really leave there kids and babies in that place.
Hmmm that was a bit cheap considering how the company rakes in the money.
Use to love Good life but they're getting killed in my city with the other fitness clubs coming in that aren't charging as much for memberships and offer just as good if not better services.
What gyms?
good life is a scammy company
Just because you couldn't work out enough to lose that quadruple chin doesn't make it a scam.
I used to work there. It's a scam.
You Oughta consider staying that way as your undercover self as far as the looks makes you look a lot younger
Another cheapskate, why in the heck are they even on Undercover Boss??
Yeah I feel these guys should have been rewarded better:)
she was as tight as the minge she licking lool.
Idiot! Mass publicity.
That's hilarious. I was just telling my brother that and saw your comment.
That's Canadians for you. If you see the Retro Fitness episode, the guy throws around 40k like it's nothing.
yea, like the mechanic: we are going to give you a van. sure, a nice gift, but why only to him?
just give a leased compagny van to all mechanics that have to be on the road.
Just froze my account from the red deer shop. So unwelcoming. Fort saskatchewan is amazing, great people. In red deer it feels like most the staff is focused on their next steroid injection rather than making people feel welcome. They could at least say hello. Also, the steam room is always broken in red deer
Kaitlin is just an Angel in Disguise, not really, but u know what i mean.
this cheap skate CEO is clueless AF
Sinners!!!
Northland Mall - and eau Claire market in Calgary both have Good life
😜💥🔥✌ Awesome Vids ;)
Nikki is my awesome aunt!
This is by far one of the cheapest COO I've seen. They must not make a lot of money. She is giving them something to make her more $. That's not doing something for them, that's doing something for her pocket. WoW... Sure wouldn't want to work there.
Looked them up geez about as much as 24 hr fitness
I have watched lot's of under cover boss.This was the most cheapest one.Why call all the worker's if you not going to bother rewarding them nothing much.Shame on you.😖
chúc mừng năm mới ạ
Here are some things they should start fixing:
Even though we all lock our lockers with valuable stuffs, there are some ppl who still cut the lockers n steal our stuffs
Some of the bathrooms are nasty and they stink as hell
Some of the good life fitness gyms have old n scratched up products for us to use, they never bother to buy new upgraded machines n etc.
Main reason, which annoys me the most are the staffs who work at good life: Some of the staffs are assholes, don't even know how to respect the customers or members who come there to workout after their long day exhaustion from their workplace.
They don't bother washing all the dirty towels n they are always out of towels for us to use, even though we paid for it for every month along with the membership.
Fix all these and i will think about getting back to Good Life Fitness.
Great show -- but I HATE GoodLife fitness
GoodLife is one of the few gyms that isn't terrible. Go back to planet fitness you tool.
Chris - have you been to LA Fitness in Canada, $45 dollars a month for the signature club and multiple locations, $30 dollars for standard club at single location.
The kids room- No. That's too many children of different age groups to watch with less than 3-4 people. 😕
Really disappointed. She could of done better for these amazing worker’s. BUT a little is better than nothing.
I am glad I am not a member or employee of this company.
open lots of gyms but then don't give a sh*t about them it seems...shocking..!
My takeaway was that all these gyms are crumbling shitholes where C-suite executives make employees use personal vehicles and pay them like shit, keeping all the money for themselves.
Why are they riding scooters
