Pros

None that I can think of!

Cons

From someone who works here, it’s been tough to watch what this club has become. It used to feel special — somewhere people were proud to be part of. Now it feels like we’re slowly losing what made it great in the first place. A lot of it starts with leadership. There’s very little direction, and when problems come up, they’re either brushed off or handled at the last minute. Communication is inconsistent, and decisions change depending on the day. Members bring up real concerns, but too often nothing actually happens. It’s frustrating because those of us on the floor are the ones facing the members, trying to explain things we didn’t decide and can’t fix. Service has taken a hit too. We’ve had a lot of turnover, and morale isn’t where it should be. Most of the staff genuinely try their best, but training is limited and support from management is inconsistent. When standards slip, it’s usually not because people don’t care — it’s because there’s no clear leadership setting the tone. Guests notice when things feel unorganized or rushed. Food and beverage used to be something we were proud of. Lately, it feels inconsistent. Some nights are solid, other nights dishes go out that shouldn’t. The menu doesn’t change much, and it doesn’t feel exciting. We advertise fresh and seasonal ingredients, but the quality doesn’t always reflect that. Bar service can be hit or miss, and details that used to matter — like presentation and proper wine service — don’t always get the attention they should. At the end of the day, most of the staff want this place to succeed. We care about the members and the history of the club. But without stronger leadership, clear standards, and real accountability, it’s hard to turn things around. This club still has potential — but it needs serious change at the top before it can feel like the place it once was again.

Pros

- Strong Team Culture: The coworkers are the highlight of the company. It’s a group of genuinely hard workers who are always willing to help. - High-Energy Environment: The pace is fast, but you never feel isolated because there is a lot of support from the people around you along the way. - Fair Expense Reimbursement: The company is good about reimbursing for miles driven and providing stipends for employee use of internet and cell phones, which is a helpful and appreciated perk.

Cons

- Stagnant Compensation: I have not received a pay increase in 3 years. With the cost of living rising rapidly, the lack of merit-based raises makes it difficult to stay long-term. - Visibility over Performance: Career growth and raises seem to depend more on how much "visibility" you have with leadership rather than the actual quality of your work. If you aren't constantly in the spotlight, your contributions are easily overlooked. - Unmet Benefit Promises: When I started, there was an expectation of certain benefits and company assets as the organization grew. However, after 4 years, many of these have not materialized for my role, which makes it feel like the initial promises haven't been kept. - Professional Standstill: Despite the company’s growth, there are very few actual growth opportunities for long-term employees. It is disheartening to feel stuck in the same place for years while the company continues to scale.
