If you value job stability and trust this is not the place for you.  In fact I was fired for bringing up the point that servers should never be triple sat, particularly in a supposed fine dining atmosphere. Constructive criticism is not welcomed. Constant frustration amongst front of house staff who become overwhelmed due to the poor pacing. The food is ok but not remarkable enough to justify the prices they charge. The dining room is too small to move around efficiently as is the bar downstairs. What is essentially a living room is used for dining when it would be better utilized as a waiting. As it is there is no waiting area, even with reservations people show up whenever they like and are seated immediately which disrupts service and kitchen operations. You will be put on call when it's slow meaning you could be scheduled for 3 days a week and only end up working 1. When you are on call you are expected to keep the day open for Edson Hill and nothing else and oftentimes you will not be called until an hour before your shift to let you know if you are working or not. Management plays favorites and seniority is important for the so if you are the new person you are less likely to get the best shifts or as many hours.

I should also mention that myself and another applied, interviewed, and were hired for a bartender position that never materialized. Don't trust what they tell you when you are hired.

All in all you would be better off working at any local burger joint. This might be the most expensive restaurant in town but it is far from the best.

I recently worked at Edson Hill for about two weeks, and I was excited to contribute to the team. However, I was surprised to receive an email notifying me of my termination without any prior feedback or indication that there were issues with my performance. I felt I was doing well and was eager to learn and improve. This experience left me feeling unsupported and confused. I hope future employees receive a more welcoming, supportive experience and clearer communication regarding their performance. 

There was absolutely no support for the kitchen staff. They can’t hold a crew, the front of house has no proper management due to the reputation that has been built in the town of Stowe. Utter refusal to make changes is what ultimately ended up making the whole kitchen crew to leave after a short six weeks of working there. If you want to be underpaid, overworked, and generally unsatisfied with your professional growth, you should apply to Edson Hill. 

Truly loved my time at Edson Hill, would highly recommend or anyone entering the hospitality world. I gained all my experience there before moving on for personal reasons. Still highly recommend them as a workplace and just a great location in general. 

I'm really enjoying working here. The owners/co-gms are awesome to work with. They really care about their employees. Everyone pulls together and helps out one another. Everyone communicates with each other. It has a very happy environment. 

Edson Hill is a beautiful place to work and they have a great team that works well together. The property is incredible and staff is very supportive of each other.
