What is the best part of working at the company?
Some of the members make it a great place, others are drama. 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
The administrator and president in our chapter. They don’t do anything to make it better, in fact things having been continuously going downhill since their inception. The stress amongst the employees there is ridiculous due to the way the administrator treats people and the President comes in and gets drunk and hardly talks or socializes with anyone. Our members are all secretly talking about how bad it is and wanting to leave due to the current board. 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Members are babied and other bartending staff don’t know how to stay on their side of the bar when not working. They constantly yell across the bar and working bartender to get so and so a drink cuz they have been waiting for more than 3 minutes when they can clearly see the bartender working is busy waiting on other members. 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Waiting on same members every day. If you are lucky you will get someone from a different lodge come in and have someone new to talk to but it’s mostly the same people every day

The teaching model is very ineffective with most of the kids, and makes it difficult to develop bonds with the kids and actually teach them to use life skills, since basically every interaction you have with them needs to be recorded and have points given to it. Some people work great with supervisors, but some supervisors are very far removed from the job and dont remember what it is like. Work/ life balance is nearly non existent- no matter what they tell you during the interview. The kids can be incredible and are the best part about Mooseheart, but some of them have been there so long that the model doesn’t work with them, and some of the kids need a different residential home that can better fit their needs. The amount of work expected is nearly impossible- especially as a single Family Teacher. If you aren’t prepared to be a single parent to ten kids who don’t get along, while every move you make is monitored and judged- I recommend looking elsewhere.

The Director of Moose Charities lacks the necessary qualifications for her role, resulting in a challenging and toxic work environment. High employee turnover is common, and the Director struggles to build positive relationships with staff. Flexibility for remote work is inconsistent and often depends on the Director's personal preferences. Numerous complaints about her management style have been submitted by both employees and company members.

The most difficult aspect of this job was dealing with a Director who did not prioritize employees' well-being and lacked effective communication skills. However, collaborating with colleagues from other departments was a rewarding and positive experience.

I would not suggest this position to anyone who is looking to work in a supportive enviroment.

My typical day at work is communication with the usual customers that come in on most days with there comical and enthusiastic humor in which i have learned to accommodate and provide a relaxing and inviting environment that i have to manage. My co-workers are exceptional, mostly because they are all volunteer and just like me, they like to help out and enjoy the fact that everyone gets to have a good time. The hardest part of the job is that bar-tending can get pretty busy and you are the only one there most days in which you have to do the whole job by yourself with a very wide range of demanding customers. The most enjoyable part about my job though is to see how many donations that are brought in by not only the members of the moose but also the volunteers that help provide for seniors, cancer facilities, and for kids exp. (Toys for Tots, Surprise Santa,)

Everyday when I went to work there My job was to keep the kitchen clean, catch up dishes, keep clean silver ware and clean plates stocked and ready for service, keep Counter tops clean and wiped down, keep floors clean and safe of water or any spill, Kept up with and made sure trash cans were clean and had fresh bags, I learned how to prep food, Such as slicing different meats and cheeses. I learned how to cook certain foods, how to prep salads, stock the line for the cooks. All co-workers i worked with were very great people many times some of them would stay after work and help me clean up if I needed it. The manager was a great teacher and good leader great person to work for. There were no really hard parts to my job, but some nights were just busier then others. Most enjoyable part of my job was being there everyday to do my job

Great daily work. Fun customers and co workers. I got to learn how to make and serve innovative cocktails use a cash register sell pull tabs all while visiting and learning about a vast array of different people in my members. As a Manager I was in charge of scheduling my coworkers and I loved the experience of working with outside vendors to keep the shelves stocked. Hardest part of the job was drawing the line between being everyones friend and the manager. I feel I put together and excellent staff that provided it to be a manageable situation. Also was difficult working for a board of men that all had different ideas of the way it should run. Poor managerial skills when it came to communication with me regarding board decisions.

every day was different, depending on customers.  i learned to be a bartender here, it was my first time trying it---nothing fancy, just simple.  there were different administrators (managers) during my time there, they all had their good and bad points.  there were usually 2 other bartenders that worked different days than me, and there were others.  for the most part they were ok to work with, some in particular very easy to work with.  we always worked alone, only one bartender to a day.  the hardest part of the job was when it was slow, the moose wasnt making money nor was i making any tips.  the most enjoyable part was meeting the customers---this is a private club where you pay dues to attend---getting to know them and having some fun and laughs at the same time.

Working in a small town bar, my typical day at work was slow until about 7 o'clock.  I would then have a small rush of about 10 customers, if I were lucky; I never reached more than 15 during a rush.  Although, I did learn a lot about customer communication skills; customers like when the staff call them by their first names and really took the time to learn more about them, everyone likes a nice greeting.  Being a manager at the bar was always a high stressed job.  I am one to lend a helping hand to my co-workers if they ask/ want it, we are a team, and nothing will get finished without one another.  So I used to help the bar manager with schedules, stocking, ordering, keno, etc., anything they needed.

I was Social Quarters manager. I was responsible for the daily operations of the social quarters and bar.  It was the best job I have ever experienced. I started out as a bartender, and as I became known , and trusted, promoted. We provided an elevated customer service experience to all members, and their guests. I managed a team of 8 professionals, did scheduling for all events and functions, verified all incoming cash, depositing on a regular basis. I was responsible for ordering of all consumables. I was a working manager, tending bar, serving lunches, dinners etc. The highest level of customer service was achieved by addressing concerns, complaints, and resolving them on the spot. I made many friends for life working here.

What is the best part of working at the company?
It is a fraternity in a small close knit community and it feels like being part of an extended family. The members take care of each other if someone is going through a hard time in life the other members will jump in and help where they can

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
I'm a volunteer not actually an employee so there is no guarantee that I will make any money

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
It's like an extended family, and there is lots of comradity 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
I open up the bar by stocking the alcohol and turning on lights and setting up the daily meal special then I greet, serve and socialize with my customers
