      Pros

      - Coolest job you’ll ever have - travel, 5 star hotels, food, etc - 0 expenses - AMAZING co-leaders. Friends for life

      Cons

      - closest thing you can get to being in a cult - you’re not allowed to have an opinion -management praises feedback but can’t take it, even when delivered in the way they mandate it be delivered - terrible base pay and they say it’s “industry standard” - I still work in the industry and it’s not even close to being true. Just a lie - lots of stress from guest scores. Success feels like a relief - the company is currently mandating leaders to work less hours so they can save money and not pay health insurance to as many people. Also gross

      Pros

      Interesting day to day work, fine coworkers, last minute travel opportunities

      Cons

      They value their company friends and longtime colleagues or former trip leaders, cult-like. Uneven workloads. Random firings. They require you to pay for all your own travel and are not transparent regarding salary and pay bands. They always share “you should be so grateful to work here,” though do not treat employees well at all. Or fairly across different departments. Turnover is very high.
