Great co-workers with bad senior management and low pay

Business Outlook

Pros

Stores located in great places. Great co-workers. Good equipment discounts. Decent vacation and flex time. High turnover rate means you can move up the ladder some if you stick around.

Cons

Company places no value in paying adults well enough for them to stick around at the store level. Not the best medical or dental coverage. They offer no vision plan. Depending where you work it is a very seasonal business that is at the mercy of mother nature to provide good snow years. Over reliance on seasonal J1 visa workers in key customer service areas is their major downfall.
