Pros

I need to express that there are definitely areas for improvement in this job. While the coworkers are acceptable, I believe there should be more positive aspects to discuss.

Cons

Starting with the cons, the staffing situation is unacceptable. The team is consistently short-staffed, functioning with a minimal crew. If even one person calls in sick, it creates chaos. The living accommodations are subpar; staying in a garden shed would be more comfortable. The facilities lack basic hygiene, with moldy rooms and an unbearable smell. Management is problematic at all levels. There is a culture of bullying and harassment, and the promises made about prioritizing family and providing accessible childcare are false. If you need to take time off for your child, expect to be reprimanded. The supposed nursery does not exist for team members currently employed. The buildings are in disrepair and require significant renovations. Furthermore, there’s an infuriating clause in the contract stating that you can be assigned to any location at their whim, regardless of what you signed. When you approach HR, or as they call it, the "people team," to address feelings of being belittled by management, coworkers, or guests, you quickly realize they are indifferent to your concerns. This is a toxic environment that needs urgent attention.

Pros

If there was more training for managers maybe they would think twice before bullying people to try and make themselves feel important. Anxiety attacks and headaches now stopped.

Cons

No one should have to endure being targeted from new management trying to make a point. Being gay isn’t a crime and nothing to do with anyone. Was made very ill and made to feel sick to the stomach knowing he would never let up until I was gone. A job I loved turned into a nightmare because of this hateful man. People like him should never be in charge of anything or anybody. The lovely guests actually put some lovely things about me on line and I was very touched. I suppose that’s why he went so full on to try and make me look bad. What the guests thought of me is far more important to me than his opinion.
