Reviews From Team Members:
R, Massage Therapist, 2022 To Present - \I've spent a good number of years working in the spa industry, and nothing compares to working at The NOW. The owners have created a family/team environment and are just as focused on their employee's well-being as they are on the guests and members at the boutique. On-site leadership and management support this vision 100%. You'll be very pleased with the diverse and professional colleagues and coworkers. The salaries are very competitive, there are health insurance options, there's an assortment of added commissions and bonuses, and the tips are steady and definitely reflect the good services you provide. The training is top-notch. Even better, the locations are impeccably decorated, tranquil, and relaxing. It's a soothing workspace.\
N, Massage Therapist, 2021 To Present - \I have been working for The Now for less than a year now. My experience with The Now is a very positive one. Here are some of the things I found to be a benefit at The Now: the other therapists and EG’s, Experience Guides, are so delightful to work with. There is no competition and no one acts better than the other. You build friendships with each other. Management works in close liaison with us. They are always polite, positive, and loving with their attitudes. Secondly, they understand time is money they pay a base pay when we don’t have a guest for the hour, and they always keep the cabinets filled with treats for us. Never experienced that. Lastly, the decor is just so breathtaking and relaxing. Who wouldn’t want to come to that all the time.\
S, Experience Guide, 2021 To Present - \Even though It’s only been 5-6 months working at The Now, It has been a wonderful experience. From the moment I walked in for the interview, I felt a good energy and flow. I'm usually hesitant to work for others but I feel more understood and heard here. I don’t feel forced to sell products or do anything I’m uncomfortable with. Rose and Danny definitely changed my life for the better and gave me a stable comfortable place to call my work home. I hope to be here for many years to come!!\
D, Experience Guide, 2021 To Present - \Job hunting can be stressful, but I discovered The NOW massage boutique and immediately knew this was a unique opportunity to be a part of something really special. Before applying I decided to explore the website and Instagram and fell in love with the concept.
I had a few interviews and was selected to be a part of the opening team for the Fort Lauderdale, Florida location. I am now approaching a year of employment and I truly love coming to work each day. I work with a great team of employees in an environment that doesn’t really feel like work. I feel valued for my contributions and compensated generously. I count myself very fortunate to call The NOW my employer and recommend them highly to anyone considering a career in massage and wellness.\
N, Experience Guide, 2023 To Present - \I've only been working at The NOW for about 4 months and I can already tell I will be here for a long time. Immediately I've felt welcomed and taken care of by everyone including the owners Rose and Danny. There is a sense of humanity and genuine care at this job that I have not experienced at previous jobs. I also feel like I can grow at this job and that my thoughts and feelings are not only welcome but appreciated! The NOW has changed my previous negative views on the workplace culture to a positive one.\
