Six Flags reviews

You will work as early as 8am and may not leave the park till midnight some times only to get back up at 6am and do it over again for 6 days a week. You make minimum wage. The food is terrible and limited at work. micro management is out of control. Something as simple as the color of your hair tie may be cause for discipline at management's discretion. The big wigs are swimming in their deep salary pools of money while the frontline in basically driven like slaves with no motivation. Pay actually decreased for Team Leaders recently with the removal of bonuses. Returning employees with years of service are offered no incentive to come back. Staffing is cut at irrational levels to save money on wages. Something as minimal as 6 or 7 park wide positions may get cut because they will save about 200 dollars on the bottom line, while they ignore larger losses such as keeping the lights on in the entire park all night long, running old worn out equipment beyond it's life span because they refuse to upgrade to reliable machinery and spending fortunes in repairs instead. The list could go way on. Basically, anybody who is paying attention can see where the money goes, and it's not where it's earned, or where it belongs, or where it's needed. Get used to the word "budget". It's all you will hear about from management. Housing is cramped. 16 people in a 5 bedroom apartment with 2 bathrooms who all have to work at the same time in the morning. You figure that one out. Bed bugs are an issue every summer as well. These are a few highlights of all the ridiculous issues you will encounter in a company that really just doesn't care about you. The frontline. The defining characters in the success of their operations. The real face, heart and soul of the company. You are the bread winner for a financial giant and all that matters is that the guys in suits are getting wealthier. Have a great season.

Little pay, no benefits. Lots of minorities and foreigners working there. No real promotion/raise opportunities. It's clear Six flags overcharges A LOT for its food and the customers become angry because of that.
