Work Hard, Play Hard - Working here is a ride with ups and downs - Sales Representative Schlitterbahn Employee Review

Sales representative

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Easy product to sale (requires outside sales). Fun Place to work. The "Schlitterbahn Way" value system is the base of the culture and is really positive. Both the sales and marketing director and sales manager acted as advocates for the team. As a result, we had a lot of tools to help us meet our goal and take care of major accounts. They were fair and always willing to help. Company paid medical. You get to play in the park for FREE!!

Cons

Company does not conduct annual performance reviews consistently. Raises are rare. Often took forever to get an expense check (like 3-6 weeks). GM doesn't hold all departments accountable to the same degree. Drama and gossip among the younger, seasonal staff.
