Pros

Foss is committed to inclusivity, and I felt welcome as soon as I started. It is a very rewarding job, and there are many opportunities to grow and learn new skills. They take care of their employees, and treat everyone fairly and with kindness

Cons

The only cons really are the effects of being in the pool for long periods of time, but once you adjust, it's super easy to manage.

Thank you for sharing your experience! We're thrilled that you felt welcomed and appreciated our focus on inclusivity, growth, and care for our team members. We understand the challenges of being in the pool for long periods, but we're glad to hear it's manageable once adjusted. To help with this, we recommend using moisturizing conditioners, shampoos, and lotions designed for frequent water exposure—many of our team members find these helpful! Thanks again for your feedback, and we're excited to continue supporting your growth with us!
