Part of NBCUniversal

Is this your company?

I worked as a ride operator just out of high school. It was a fun summer job for a recent H.S. grad. - Ride Operator Universal Studios Employee Review

Pros

It was fun working in a theme park and getting to use the "hidden" employee entrances into the backlot. The employee store was nice because you got discounts on all kinds of stuff. The training was also good and most of my coworkers were friendly. Overall it was a good experience and I never intended to work there for more than 1 summer.

Cons

Low paying job with not much potential for growth/promotion unless you work there for a long long time.

Pros

Free park access if that’s what you or your family like to do regularly.

Cons

Very large and slow moving organization that has an odd promotion/performance review process. This is a place where people come to work 9-5, take hour lunches, and place the corporate process of staying 10+ years hoping for a promotion opportunity and not work hard.
