Stressful but fun

Swim instructor

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

It was fun and nice that the classes I taught were only 30 minutes each so it moved fast for the most parts.

Cons

They were extremally understaffed which led to working way more often than planned. The management wasn't super responsive but the coworkers and general environment was friendly.
