Vantaggi
None. Not even the Epic Pass that is offered as a part of your compensation isn’t at its full value. There are restrictions on employee usage and its not available to use at the European resorts.
Svantaggi
Working at Vail Resorts was the biggest career mistake of my life. This company will destroy your mental health and any semblance of a work life balance. They enforced a 3 day return to office starting in early September under the veil of “enhancing culture” but its clear to see, with the stock down 50% YoY, its an effort to liquidate/force people to quit without the bad press that comes with a corporate wide lay off. The company is entirely run top-down from Kirsten Lynch with everyone at the mercy of whatever she wants to do, which is normally something painfully outdated. Her “big win” this year was to put the Epic Pass on the mobile app. A truly groundbreaking idea for 2024. Making it even more of a joke - the Epic app doesn’t record stats correctly and is littered with bugs. The biggest red flag you need to consider before taking a job here is that a dozen or more current employees left this year without a new job, some on the exec board. The culture is that toxic and suffocating that anything, even not working during this challenging time to find a job, is a better choice.
