Pros
After having many different jobs the past 5 years, Big Blue Swim School is by far my favorite. For the first time ever I love coming to work everyday. I love working with the children and that everyday brings something new. I feel that I have made connections with a lot of different families between customer service and being in the water. I love how hands on this job is and seeing the progress from the children. The managers make me feel appreciated and when there is something I need to work on, I feel that I am told in a professional manner and that my potential is seen and acknowledged. One of the main reasons I chose to work at Big Blue was because of the growth opportunity and the amount of fun everyone seemed to be having. Big Blue has great incentives such as weekend pizza, move up rewards and bonuses.
Cons
Some cons of working at Big Blue is it being required to work a weekend day and the amount of hours you have to spend here to meet full time. Scheduling days off is difficult and I never know if my day is approved until right before. Since I have started here 6 months ago, I've had to buy 4 bathing suits and my skin took a long time to adjust to the amount of chlorine it was being exposed too.
