Pros

Free passes- although they are now all digital and harder to give to friends Chance to meet with the CEO at lunch to give your opinion

Cons

They are all about profit. Sold a parking lot for $$$ even though it costs employees over 20 minutes each way that they are not paid for. Low pay not comparable to other places in Orlando They want you to have a degree, if you have a degree in light bulb changing you can get promoted over someone with real experience, and a lesser degree. Unrealistic hour expectations from part time employees. Unfair bonuses that skip hard working part timers (who work 30+ hours a week) A president who does not really care about employees. Management really is horrible. Like brain washed zombies that so as they are told. If you give some of them a little power (read lord of the flies).

Pros

Everything was wonderful! I always had support from leadership when dealing with difficult situations, I never had an issue getting time off when I needed it, and overall the job was so much fun!

Cons

Main thing is that you are required to work 2 out of the three big holidays (at least when I was there) between thanksgiving, Christmas and new years. So that was sometimes difficult.

Pros

Competitive pay with strong earning potential. Excellent 401(k) plan and overall benefits package. Clear and straightforward point-based attendance policy. Comprehensive employee benefits that compare favorably within the industry.

Cons

The role places a stronger emphasis on service than sales, despite sales performance being an important part of the job. Internal systems can also experience frequent technical issues that affect efficiency. The two biggest drawbacks are the quality assurance process and skill progression. Quality assurance metrics can feel overly rigid, with significant emphasis placed on specific phrasing and required talking points, even during simple customer interactions. This can make conversations feel less natural. Performance evaluations may also vary depending on the reviewer, leading to some inconsistency in scoring. As employees gain additional skills, such as handling vacation packages and room-only reservations, scheduling flexibility may decrease due to business needs. Opportunities for preferred schedules or early releases can become more limited. Additionally, skill-based call routing may result in periods where agents handle only room-only calls, which do not offer the same commission or incentive opportunities as sales calls.
