Pros

Good pay although it has gone down

Cons

Communication is downright atrocious, you will not be told anything unless you have emailed at least twice. Management completely ignores any requests for movement to different camps/locations. Management also regularly makes promises that they do not keep, they will hire you for one job and put you on a completely different one. The materials needed to perform the required parts of camp are extremely lacking and any requests for more will be ignored. The owner of the company has a MAJOR nepotism issue, almost every higher-up is either a friend or family member, and this includes recent hires. This makes it near impossible to actually get a promotion because someone with zero experience but is friends with the owner will take it. Any sort of suggestion for making the camp better falls on deaf ears, and often will get you demoted or fired. In-field management is unable to do their jobs because they are given zero support from main management, making it impossible for anyone working in the field to get support. Any reasoning behind transfers that do happen are not given. The person in charge of hiring and assigning positions refuses to listen to any input from anyone other then themself. You have to actively fight against the management for them to pay you the correct amounts if you are working on an hourly wage. Management also sends out “plussers” as they call them who are just friends of the owner who regularly interrupt and humiliate instructors in front of their groups over minor things, they also report directly back to the owner so anything said to or around them will be reported directly back. They basically operate as spies, and they are also one of the quickest ways to communicate with the higher ups. Safety regulations are also almost non-existent. I was never asked for my food handlers card, CPR certification, wilderness first aid certification, or any other safety documents even though they claim to require those on their website.

Pros

It was fun to be outdoors doing fun things.

Cons

There were many communication issues with upper management. There isn't much room for growth. It requires a huge commitment and it can be hard on the body.
