Pros

Decent perks, cool industry, terrible compensation

Cons

I agree 110% with all of the reviews on this board describing Vail Resorts as “Dysfunctional” with “Disconnected Management”. As one of the recently departed from the corporate office in Broomfield, after several years including the move from Keystone, all I can say is that I am glad to be gone and wouldn't recommend to anyone. Over the past 2-3 years numerous corporate reorganizations have resulted in very high turnover and the wrong individuals in the wrong positions. Most people who have been with the company for 1+ year are not very happy and would attest to all of this. Definitely not a place where you want to go in order further or progress a career. At one point in time, not too long ago, it did live up to the perceived experience that you would expect (good company, cool industry, etc…). Unfortunately that has all changed and it has become the “Wal-Mart” of the ski industry.

Good benefits, fun lifestyle, mediocre pay.

Pros

Free ski pass for all Vail resorts, fun work environment and resort-lifestyle. Optional health benefits are a little pricey but decent.

Cons

Nearly all employees are seasonal part time or full time. The wages for most positions is minimum, no holiday pay or overtime.
