The Fountaingrove Club

From the beginning of my employment with this company, I knew that I was in for a treacherous experience. Month after month, new policies and promises gave us a glimmer of hope that our workplace would finally be stable, just to be dissatisfied realizing that maybe there just is no way to solve the problem. There are reasons for this evident if you look at administration, which is common for the industry, but I have never worked somewhere with leadership that is so out of touch with their employee's potential. The members are growing impatient and rightfully so, they just want this club to be what they imagined it would be after the rebuild, and it seems like there is a lot to do before the standard is met. If you are experienced in the industry, are a good conversationalist, or you like golf, then you have the potential to do very well here. It has been quite slow due to many members refusing to go to the restaurant, but if you are willing to give it your all while the last kinks are worked out, I absolutely would recommend a career at The Fountaingrove Club. You will have fun, you will make money, and you will probably also age prematurely due to stress, but at the end of the day, having all of your customers as regulars is such a special thing, and provides a chance to build connections you never would have otherwise. 

Only work here if you like to feel unappreciated, get overworked and underpaid. Management, quite honestly doesn’t even exist. Training? Good luck getting properly trained. Want time off? Have fun figuring out how to request it! This is a job where you pick up the slack for others and no one has consequences. Areas that are lacking get no attention. The nonexistent management is condescending and degrading, when they do decide to get involved. The turnover is embarrassing and is a reflection of how poorly this establishment is ran. The double standards are out of this world, and team members are in a constant battle of who gets paid more/less, lots of animosity and bad morale here. 100000/10 Do NOT recommend.

stay away unless you like working long hours for little pay. They are constantly changing every aspect of your job daily and they really don't have a long term plan. It just depends on whose working that day, as to what answer you'll get. they let the customers boss treat you badly and say "its part of the job" and expect you to stand on your feet for 8 hours a day while fulfilling their endless list of things your supposed to be in charge of. all while receiving minimum wage.

After working in admin at the Fountaingrove Club for over a year during the VERY difficult recovery efforts from the Tubbs Fire, it became clear to me as someone over 50 that the younger workers were treated with much more respect, and no matter how adept I was with technology or how dedicated I was to our goals, management was not interested in workers over a certain age.  One of the worst ageist workplaces I've ever seen.

Learning new things how to clean attention to details follow instruction finish all duties and set new goals each and every day every day was the learning process for me even though it was repetition I managed to overcome stressful environment I live up to everyone's expectation including members always pay attention to details on cleaning restrooms office fitness floor door handles etc etc

If you work for them you get a free membership and discounted classes. It’s a very nice club to work for and the members are great. There is favoritism going on with some management that is unprofessional and effects the working environment in a certain department.  There isn’t much room for growth but it’s a beautiful place in the Fountaingrove hills and a pretty nice place to work. They take care of you as well as they are able.

Fountaingrove is a beautiful club that is a wonderful place to work for the majority of associates.  However, at my top executive level it is rife with inconsistency due to an inexperienced Board of Directors who do not have a set direction for the future of the club and administer governance with "knee jerk" reactions versus thoughtful consideration.

Politics of a Country Club can make or break the work experience.  The Direction of the Club has changed dramatically over the course of my tenor, and directives are passed down from members and managers.  You must take it all in stride and realize your position while there to enjoy being employed there.  Benefits of using the Club are great for employees.

Great job for a student who is in school and needs a job for the "summer". Fast paced and professional! 

The best part is using the gym for free and discount on food etc. 

The bad part is working all weekends and holidays! 
Late nites and early mornings!

Staff turnover is high and pay is low.
