Thank you very much for your review. We are glad to hear about your positive experience while working at YLG. Employee engagement and communication is something that is extremely important to us as a global company, especially during the pandemic. We are constantly trying new ways to communicate updates and information so that everyone has what they need to do their job in a safe environment. We understand that sometimes multi-tasking between departments can be challenging, especially in this new virtual world. We like to look at this time as an opportunity to cross-train our employees in other departments so that they can gain further skills and have a better understanding of how the company operates, which ultimately results in our customer receiving the best service they deserve. Having a further knowledge of the company as a whole provides better insights and allows our employees to excel in their positions and advance. Thank you again for your review and for being valuable part of our team! Ashlee Pekar Talent Acquisition and Training Manager

Pros

First and foremost, the people at RBG are what make it such a great place to work. The team is passionate, supportive, and genuinely enjoys what they do. Everyone works hard, but there's also a strong culture of having fun and celebrating successes together. RBG does an excellent job of fostering a collaborative, team-oriented environment. Even though we work remotely, which is another fantastic perk, there are plenty of opportunities to connect with colleagues through clubs like cooking, running, gaming, and more. These groups make it easy to build relationships with team members across the organization. And, of course, working in the travel industry is an exciting bonus. Being part of a company that helps create memorable travel experiences makes the work even more rewarding.

Cons

If fast-paced is not for you, RBG may not be your best fit.

Pros

Remote. Hourly + Commission. Health Benefits.

Cons

High performance metrics were not the primary factor in employment decisions. Leadership communication was inconsistent and lacked transparency. Policies prioritizing customer satisfaction leaves you feeling undervalued and used. Rapid operational changes occasionally impacted team stability. Goals and priorities were sometimes ambiguous and would change suddenly without explanation. Organizational changes created confusion and conflict to the work culture. Inconsistent enforcement of policies and standards. Constant increase to work load with no additional scheduled time to complete new assigned tasks. Management is mostly comprised of individuals who failed as successful Account Executives but got moved up to management. They impose unrealistic expectations that they themselves couldn't keep. You aren't just selling Rail Vacations you are teaching customers about how train travel works on the phone, this leads to very long phone calls and over time. Website pricing is misleading which leads to a lot of mad customers calling in taking it out of the people that answer the phones. Mandatory weekends, and monthly changes to schedule with only 2 weeks notice which leads to a bad work/life balance.
