Pros

There are no "Pros" to list in my honest opinion. This site requires a 20-word minimum, so here it is.

Cons

The company could care less if you live or die, quite literally. It is a scam company (research the Jacobs family), and has already lost contracts in Yosemite. I first applied for DNC over a month ago. One week after signing the background check (I had a misdemeanor for a bar fight some 5 years ago), I was told to pack my bags, I had the job. Borrowing money to make the 1,800 mile trip, I arrived at Yellowstone National Park on the 18th of May, 2016. I completed orientation, training, and began work. Two hours into my first day, the manager saw my background check and immediately fired me (no matter that HR had already seen it and hired me anyways). They did not pay me for orientation, training, or my labor. I was literally dumped off in Bozeman, MT in 28-degree weather, at night, and no way home. They literally left me to die. Forced to hitchhike back home, I did meet two others who went through the exact same experience I had. We are all trying to figure out how to get the Department of Labor involved, so we can get what little pay is owed to us, but it is difficult as Yellowstone is a grey area of State and Federal land (we're getting the runaround between state and national labor departments). These people have no legal recourse, they are literally above the law. I wish I had known what kind of company Delaware North is, I would have stayed far away. These people should face attempted manslaughter charges. Don't make the mistake I did. They might put you in an even worse position.
