So here’s what you’re in for. Rich Dad buys Trust Fund Baby CEO a ski resort. Company grows over time. Issue is CEO doesn’t really want to run a company of this size. Just wants to ski, bro. The executive team members are jockeying to be CEO’s BFF and ride on the company jet and boat. They’re always trying to do the other guys in and don’t mind using their employees to accomplish this. Somebody’s always taking a bullet. Not a good environment to work in.
If you’re a white, male Millennial, you might fit into the culture. Otherwise, not so much. Expect to hear profanity, gender comments and off-color jokes regularly. LDS need not apply. You won’t be comfortable there.
Depending upon your role, you’ll be ‘the shiny penny’ for two hours to two months. Don’t expect any on-boarding, training, a job description, stated expectations, real feedback from your manager, compensation based upon your accomplishments or promotional opportunity. Too corporate, man. You’ll have to deal with and do work for CEO’s family. And Powdr and the ski industry are so hip, they don’t have to pay competitive wages or offer a 401K. You’ll just want to work there because it’s that cool.
Don’t be fooled by glowing reviews on social media. Powdr’s Marketing people are on it. Their motto is “don’t let the truth get in the way of a good story”.
