What is the best part of working at the company?
The people that are similar level to you are genuinely some of the sweetest and warm hearted folks you’ll meet. Your reporting managers are also really cool people more often than not, but as with every job the higher up someone is, the more sour they are towards lower positions. Truly some of the most unruly coworkers you’d ever meet, everyone in those spots are so spoiled you’re left in shock by the complaining statements they make, HR is a pain to go through, nobody actually responds to your emails, it could be paragraphs long talking about the racist coworkers running through there and they’d just use the auto response prompt google gives them. Don’t expect anything good to come from the place except for a ski pass in the driest state in the country and fond relationships with people in low positions.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
In a kitchen that serves several hundred employees every day, the most stressful part of it all is the mess they make. You can expect people in public places to be messy. But this is employee only, these people are on the clock walking through the line spilling everywhere, being extremely disrespectful to the food we spend hours preparing starting at 4-5 AM!!! They’re brats and slobs and always dealing with their behavior and seeing no resolve towards it is defeating.

If you’re considering a career at Powder Mountain, be aware that management often fails to follow through on promises, disregards work-life balance, and maintains an environment where gender biases are apparent. Concerns about unfair treatment and professional boundaries go largely unaddressed, and attempts to resolve issues through HR tend to be met with empty assurances rather than real solutions. For a company that prides itself on fostering a sense of community and camaraderie, the reality is that they don’t extend that same care to the people working behind the scenes. The lack of accountability, respect, and support makes it hard to trust that they have their employees' best interests at heart. Powder Mountain might look great on the outside, but beneath the surface it's a toxic place to work. Look elsewhere if you’re seeking a professional, supportive work environment—this is absolutely not it.

A large but relatively unheard of mountain outside of Ogden, Utah. Provides decent pay and of course a free season pass to employees. Can be very cold on some days but usually nothing you can dress for. awesome train to ride on your breaks and management is just as passionate about skiing as the employees are. When operating lifts employees constantly rotate allowing for some skiing when going to the top shack to the bottom. A shuttle buss at the bottom of the mountain road help save employees gas and help with traffic, and is always a circus after a day of work. excellent prices for food on a mountain and better with the employee discount. I thoroughly loved my season there.

What is the best part of working at the company?
Of coarse being able to ski/snowboard everyday, environment is spectacular,  and the Energy that happens amongst all the guest on powder day's is magical.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Days during ski season can be fairly long during the holidays.

it was like working a vacation dream job. i Set up ski lifts in the morning, groom the loading area, remove snow from lift seats and test all safety features. Set up ropes to guide skiers into line, greeting all riders with a positive fun attitude and big smile. Maintaining unloading ramp to ensure safe unloading and Also running all controls for the lift including stop, slow, fast and emergency brakes. Ensuring safety was number 1 priority.

The passion for your job is a must at powder mountain. Everything you are doing from the moment you get there to the moment you leave is about employee and guest experience. The culture is amazing. The hardest part about working there is being capable of driving in snow storms.  The most enjoyable part of the job is the people.

I was given the skills to delegate, as well as up sale 
At one point I would love to go permanent it is seasonal for me right now but management would provide year long job security
Relying on mother nature was the toughest part however developed skills to talk rationally to clients and allow them to vent a problem solve.

I love the way they treat there employees

Managment hires and promotes off of friendships. If they don't want you to advance they will require items that they would overlook for someone else that they view as a friend. They pick and choose what rules apply for each person. There is no consistency in the managing crew. Managment will tell you one thing then something else will happen and use the excuse, "Sorry we don't know our own policy".

The employees at powder have always been awesome and laid back, it's called the Powder Mountain family for a reason. The new management and owners have taken some getting used to and have made some not so favorable decisions. As a volunteer ski patroller I get great compensation (free skiing, buddy passes, discounts on food) and it's fun, but paid patrollers only get started at $9.80, I think lifties make more than that.
