Pros

don't get comfortable and don't try to make sense. Fill out spread sheets and cry on company calls and they'll love your radical vulnerability.

Cons

don't get comfortable and don't try to make sense. Your boss will probably quit in a year or the whole company with go through a re-organization so whats the point.

Pros

Free Ski Pass, beautiful location, 40% off retail.

Cons

They tell kids they have a place in housing, then just before arriving, they suddenly don't. This whole county is a ski resort and I'm a long-time local, if you're not in housing before the ski season starts, you probably won't be. They pretend like they don't have enough parking passes for their half-empty employee parking then regularly put boots on up to three tires. At $150 each to remove they're making a lot of money off of these kids. They promise full-time hours, but once the Christmas rush is over people's hours can drop down to 10 hours a week. As a manager this was frustrating, there were so many things we could've gotten done during slow times to get ready for the spring rush, but they wouldn't let us keep ourselves staffed. The job was fun and I liked my coworkers, but the way upper management treated employees as extendible was an emotionally heavy thing to live with. I felt I had few resources as assistant manager (and I could tell our general manager felt the same) to protect my employees from the corporation we worked for. I will forage in the woods before I work for them again.
