Pros

*An excellent way to start off and to also grow within the travel industry. Almost every single person that has really gone above and beyond in their roles has been promoted into salaried or management positions. The management team are willing to work with you to create a career path in the travel industry. Through hard work, dedication, reliability, and passion you can really get to where you want to be and beyond. *Great compensation for those who are determined and have a passion for vacation sales. *Selling vacations! Think about this...it is selling a fun luxury that everyone loves to do. It could be an insurance or healthcare company...not so fun. * Great people everywhere. I have made some incredibly close friends since working here and I love the fact that the CEO and President are so approachable and willing to listen to you. Because of it being a small company, it definitely has a family mentality and you feel genuinely wanted and appreciated. *The travel potential through FAM trips. Everyone can get one after a few months of working there and they are truly a fantastic experience to learn and understand what we sell/have to offer. *Wonderful travel benefits for employees. If you are trying to do some of your own travel, the benefits you get for that is quite great! *At the end of the day, it is exciting to be with a company that really does grow year over year. After being here for quite some time, it is crazy to see the growth from 1 office with 30 employees to 3 offices with 110+ employees, It is definitely a great feeling to be a part something with such rapid growth. *Generous vacation time, especially if you have been there for several years.

Cons

*Because it is still a somewhat a growing company overall, there are definitely some growing pains. But this leads to learning from the past, and improvement towards the overall growth. * No dental insurance...but once again, don't let this be a make or break. * I can't really think of anything else. Not every day is going to be perfect, but that goes with every job in life. It is a really fun company to work with, don't let these previous negative reviews turn you away.

Pros

First and foremost, the people at RBG are what make it such a great place to work. The team is passionate, supportive, and genuinely enjoys what they do. Everyone works hard, but there's also a strong culture of having fun and celebrating successes together. RBG does an excellent job of fostering a collaborative, team-oriented environment. Even though we work remotely, which is another fantastic perk, there are plenty of opportunities to connect with colleagues through clubs like cooking, running, gaming, and more. These groups make it easy to build relationships with team members across the organization. And, of course, working in the travel industry is an exciting bonus. Being part of a company that helps create memorable travel experiences makes the work even more rewarding.

Cons

If fast-paced is not for you, RBG may not be your best fit.

Pros

Remote. Hourly + Commission. Health Benefits.

Cons

High performance metrics were not the primary factor in employment decisions. Leadership communication was inconsistent and lacked transparency. Policies prioritizing customer satisfaction leaves you feeling undervalued and used. Rapid operational changes occasionally impacted team stability. Goals and priorities were sometimes ambiguous and would change suddenly without explanation. Organizational changes created confusion and conflict to the work culture. Inconsistent enforcement of policies and standards. Constant increase to work load with no additional scheduled time to complete new assigned tasks. Management is mostly comprised of individuals who failed as successful Account Executives but got moved up to management. They impose unrealistic expectations that they themselves couldn't keep. You aren't just selling Rail Vacations you are teaching customers about how train travel works on the phone, this leads to very long phone calls and over time. Website pricing is misleading which leads to a lot of mad customers calling in taking it out of the people that answer the phones. Mandatory weekends, and monthly changes to schedule with only 2 weeks notice which leads to a bad work/life balance.
