Stay away - Recensione dipendente - Manager presso Club Med

Speaking strictly from my personal experience as a manager at Club Med, I would strongly advise against working there. The glossy marketing has nothing to do with the reality inside: unstable seasonal contracts even after years, extremely low pay hidden behind so-called ‘benefits,’ and a culture where unpaid extra hours are simply expected. Leadership often felt unstable and psychologically draining, and burnout seemed almost built into the system, most colleagues and managers I worked with were constantly exhausted. What I lived aligns with what many other employees report: very long days (often 11–15 hours), mandatory nighttime presence treated as ‘village life’ rather than paid work, poor training, favoritism, and little support from management. They rely heavily on very young staff because they can pay them less and pressure them more, while many adults become so absorbed in the internal culture that they can be easily pushed in any direction. Living conditions for staff are often far from what is advertised, and you’re essentially never off the clock. The so-called ‘dream experience’ becomes a draining cycle where you must say yes to every client request , even the unreasonable ones , while giving far more than you ever get back. Based on my experience, it’s a work environment that exploits people, exhausts them, and hides its flaws behind a perfect brochure image.
