That will vary from gym to gym. I currently work out at a CrossFit gym because I specialize most in olympic weightlifting and it has the proper equipment. I've also wanted to do some metcons to developed a little more aerobic capacity in a more fun discipline than just running or HIIT. However, I am recovering from a pulled hamstring (not CrossFit related), and pick and choose the metcons, scaling them to my current abilities. I certainly do not half-ass them but I couldn't give two shits about setting a PR in some random metcon I may never do again, just that I have a consistent elevated heart rate indicative of aerobic training. No one has said anything about (aside from one Crossfitter who talks shit to everyone), and the trainers have given me alternative suggestions when I need to back off from the normal workout. 

The coaches at my gym are well-trained and knowledgeable however. But because it's so easy to get a CrossFit level 1 certification, that may not be true at every location. Still, every workout is scalable to your abilities, (just looked at the CrossFit Open this year), and person encourage challenging yourself, not destroying yourself. 

Despite all this, you need a good coach to assist you in learning the proper technique needed to ensure safe lifting. The classical lifts and gymnastic movements all are relatively safe if done correctly, but highly technical, so lots of practice is needed.
