Pros

Year round employment. only 40 hours a week. Was able to learn more about the golfswing

Cons

Cheating people. All about sales, not about helping them improve. I quit after realizing that my job was to basically lie to my students in an effort to get them to spend more money. Had to teach a certain way and focus on obscure, complicated points.

Pros

- Enough to live salary - Good brand and effective teaching system

Cons

- Management's level of support appears to increase during high sales periods but may become more critical during downturns. - Access to social media is now significantly restricted compared to previous policies, and use of platforms like YouTube must adhere to company terms that favor the company's interests. - Social interactions and team culture might not be as robust, with potentially less emphasis on employee well-being. - Former employees may offer valuable insights into the work environment that current staff, who may have biases, might not provide. - Higher management may not always fully understand daily operations and might rely on input from specific individuals or their close associates, which could lead to perceptions of favoritism. - Recent issues involving the former Director of Golf raise questions about the company's role in addressing problems, as the situation persisted for an extended period. - There seems to be a tendency to focus on minor employee mistakes while not addressing internal issues as effectively. - Management changes, including the new leadership from China, have reportedly led to an increased focus on assigning blame rather than directly addressing or seeking feedback on issues. - Succeeding in this environment may require exceptional social skills and a high level of loyalty, which could be challenging given the human element. - Recruitment promises may not always align with the actual working conditions, as initial positive remarks may not fully reflect ongoing practices. In conclusion, this workplace might not be the best fit for those seeking a positive and balanced work experience.
