Pros

The best parts were the access to all Vail Resorts mountains, meeting lots of fellow employees, and just having the opportunity to live and work in a mountain resort town.

Cons

The part that I struggled with most was that working for a giant corporation in a high-demand position made me feel completely expendable and it was difficult to find value in my daily responsibilities.

Pros

Everyone is working in the same industry because they share the same passion They are not there for the paychecks. Well at least 90% of them

Cons

Sometimes it can be very stressful working morning rush to get people out on the slopes, each consumer thinks they are better and more important than the person next to them. It is impossible to please everyone. Also the $1 a hour extra per day as a up-sell intensive is pretty silly. Skiing should be about the experience and not about the up sale.
