Pros

Great community of people. Fun work environment.

Cons

Disorganized management without a consistant or clear direction. High expectations for staff with little respect given from management. Staff operates at high level of responsibility yet are sometimes treated as if they are children.

Pros

Learned a lot of skills for survival and wilderness Plant ID learned how to work with various children and backgrounds Each week was always different and something new

Cons

Can be extremely challenging at times, even on a daily basis Sometimes felt there was no support system in a vast space of employees No benefits Only seasonal, no guarantee for jobs lined up in the future Clique-y Heavily underpaid for what we do. It wasn't explained to us that overtime pay was included in our weekly salary-- it was explained to us in a way that it was additional to our weekly salary. We had 2 15-minute breaks but it could only be taken on the bus or some other time we could find on our own, but it wasn't well organized and oftentimes (most of the time) felt we were never able to take breaks.

Pros

-Awesome people. Seriously, everyone here is really skilled, friendly, and accepting. -You will gain serious skills. Hopefully you're good already, but your survival and primitive skills will improve dramatically. -Management is reasonable and smart. -As long as you like kids, it's fun. So fun! You're really free to work on the skills and projects you want (within the confines of your camp type) and the campers are generally great.

Cons

-Intense work. Exhausting. A lot of people just go home and pass out after work. A fulfilled sleep, but still. -Trackers is growing A LOT right now, so it's hard to say how different things will be next season. I'm optimistic, because they've done a great job so far. -Pay is okay? Assistants earn minimum wage, regular counselors earn more. Portland is so cheap to live in (and has such high minimum wage) that I managed to save quite a lot of money in one season. I honestly don't know much about pay at competing organizations, but I felt that pay was more or less fair.
