Pros

Really nice coworkers and supervisors who will help you to get the job done on an outdated selling system.

Cons

You probably need to bring money to survive on the "generous" hourly rate of $10. The company makes all kinds of promises and expect you to deliver World Class Service for a Third World pay. The overall work experience is not epic!

Pros

most of the people who work here care about you and your success. If you cannot find a solution it is usually easy to find someone that can. the experience for the guest is top notch. Once you are established in the company the pay program is decent. It is hard work to get to that level!

Cons

short work year, expectations are not always attainable even doing above and beyond level performance. It sometimes surprises me who gets the recognition within the company. I am not in management, but some of the most amazing job performances that I see daily are from the people low on the totem pole that receive little to no recognition and the least amount of pay.

Pros

You get a free ski pass You get mediocre benefits

Cons

You will never make what you're worth Your work load will only increase the longer you stay, yet you won't receive raises People rarely advance There is quite a bit of mismanagement The turn over rate is excessively high and, therefore, quality of work and efficiency are slim to none
