Pluspunten

Fun to work in the snow, most kids are fun, senior staff are awesome, great bosses.

Minpunten

If you are under 30 years old, or have not worked as an instructor for decades you are almost guaranteed to only teach young kids who are on the bunny hill or maybe chair one. Scheduling is absolutely awful. If someone else doesn't show up (almost always) or they overbooked the lessons (very common) you will have to pick up the slack even of that means taking a lesson of 7 near-toddlers on the bunny hill for two hours. Those days are rough. Other times they underbook lessons and have too many instructors, then you "get to" go off on your own which sounds nice in theory but if you are scheduled to work, you should have work. Plus, the drive is both long and expensive and you already don't get many hours per day (6 max).

Pluspunten

Beautiful Mountain. There is a small handful of great employees there. Has potential.

Minpunten

The organization has a poor history of management, inadequate safety standards for mountain equipment outside of the lifts, and weak environmental protection practices. The mountain frequently smells of overflowing septic systems, spilled diesel fuel, and hydraulic oil. There appears to be a good-ol’-boys club mentality, and the operation often functions more like a salvage yard than a properly maintained mountain facility. Management seems more focused on an unrealistic expansion plan than addressing the existing infrastructure, which has been poorly maintained and mismanaged for years. The workload placed on a small, under-equipped shop is severe, especially given the expectation that worn-out equipment be maintained to a safe operating standard.
