Great college job - not career
Pros
- LOVED THE PEOPLE: everyone I worked with (even the managers) were totally awesome, and some of the best people I have worked with. - Flexible with schedule (I was in college while working here, and management was always willing to work around my schedule) - Free ski pass
Cons
LOW PAY: getting a free ski pass is awesome, but on the other hand unable to afford gas to drive up to the mountains on my time off isn't quite as awesome . NO TRAINING: I was hired during the largest sale of the year and was thrown into the job without any training. HORRIBLE COMMUNICATION: If you're going to give employees a free pass it would be nice to know that there ARE BLACKOUT DATES for employees, so they don't drive up to the mountains just to be told they have to buy a full price ticket. Not all employees live right on the mountain, some have to drive 2 hours, please be considerate and let your employees know when there are blackout dates. COMPUTERS & PHONES SUCK: Phones and computers would crash all of the time. I would have to start every phone conversation with a customer saying "Our phones are acting up today, if you get disconnected I will call you back". Except I would say this every single day. OPPORTUNITY FOR GROWTH: 3 words: There is none. Upper management didn't listen or trust store management on who should grow in the company.
