Pros

If you love skiing and a free epic pass, then working for Vail is great!

Cons

There are a lot of reasons you wouldn't want to work for Vail. First of all, wages are almost disrespectfully low for living in notoriously expensive ski towns. While lower level management will do everything to take care of you, Vail corporate is constantly clawing at their backs and it shows. Vail Resorts is all about making money. Don't let them fool you otherwise. Vail resorts makes it obvious that they see their lower level employees as easily expendable and don't show the slightest interest in employee retention. Don't expect to work for this company longer than a season.

Pros

Beautiful outdoors, great people to work with

Cons

No investment in long-term employees makes it difficult to put forth the effort to provide the level of customer care that is expected. Managers do not interact with employees in a productive manner and training is minimal.

Free lift pass, fun people to work with

Cons

With the cost of living, the pay is basically minimum wage. Hours typically aren't great either.
