Pros

beautiful scenery amazing coworkers rewarding experiences I came here after I graduated college, and was looking for a place to live and work in the outdoors before I started my career where I would most likely be in an office from 9-5. This place gave me so many amazing experiences, and a whole load of more confidence in myself - not to mention some amazing life-long friends.

Cons

Long hours seasonal level pay

Pali Institute Response

Thank you for your kind review! We appreciate the detail! This is definitely not your office type job or environment! Camp hours are day into the evening for sure, day activities, evening activities! We try to wear the kids out but who isnt excited to be at camp!? Camp pay isnt corporate for sure! But free room and board, utilities and meals helps! We are working on adding more breaks during the week, thank you!
