Great Summer - Recensione dipendente - Dipendente anonimo presso Camp Highlander

Be outside and meet unique people you’ll get to spend a lot of time with. The whole job is just being friends and modeling for kids.

You are working with the same people everyday, it’s a small community and with the ages of counselors, it’s not always the most mature.

They hire essentially anyone! They don’t really fire anyone (unless for blatant reasons)

This was the worst summer camp I’ve ever worked for. They throw health and safety to the wind. There were major red flags when it comes to camper’s physical safety and emotional safety, so if you’re okay with turning a blind eye in the name of obedience then work here. Children had improperly sized equipment because there isn’t enough to go around, which was my biggest issue. The owners are not good at open dialogue, giving constructive feedback, or listening to other points of view. There were multiple moments when a team member was publicly embarrassed by owners or leaders at all staff meetings. It was uncomfortable to witness. The staff has a big clique problem. Returning staff hazes new staff members & new staff members rarely return if they did not attend as children. Overall I’d say this camp has the lowest morale I’ve ever witnessed at a camp. On the surface morale seems great, but when you engage with other staff members most people don’t enjoy working there.
