The Sports Facilities Companies

This organization has, like any other organization, its pros and cons.

Pros: Ability to learn, ability to grow professionally, trust in their employee's to be innovative, decent options in benefits packages

Cons: Very long working hours, sometimes travel, work/life balance challenges, pay varies based on location/job (some good, some bad -depending on your role), poor leadership (in some instances)

They operate venues across the United States. Some are definitely run like well oiled machines, some others are not. It depends who you work for and where you work that determines your opportunities for success in this business.

All of the owner's are genuine people and down to earth. This is a growing company with lots of potential.

I started at the Panama City Beach Sports Complex in January of 2020. I could not be happier with my coworkers and my maintenance manager. These are people you can talk, relate to, and enjoy while doing your work. I have never felt more appreciated and never worked in such a great environment. The main office staff could be looked at by corporate, but I don’t have to deal with them that much so it doesn’t bother me, but I have heard stories and seen how some elements of the facility have suffered due to a budgeting mishap, I have even seen my hours cut because of the budget, but working with such great people kept me working there.

The management at this company are extremely dishonest and never accept the blame for their own actions. I was told multiple times I would be fired if I talked to “the client” about their own financials. Very uncomfortable working environment, very hard to maintain integrity without repercussions. Went 6 months with very little progress. As finance I was not allowed at events or to be involved in any sports.

Very fast-paced atmosphere requiring constant drive, focus, and determination; can be tiring and very often stressful.

The expectations are high on the locations minimal staff. No long range business plan in place, Just-in-time leadership & the planning and project management is practically non-existent..

Though the ideas are present for success, the stepping stones to achieve that success are not in place and any promotional opportunities will require re-location.

I work in food and beverage, so only get hours when there are big events. June, July, and December are the busiest months, but some months have 0 hours. You meet a lot of people, most of whom are really nice. It can get extremely busy, but it mostly comes in bursts with down time in between. Also while training was improved since I began, it took almost a year before I could do everything on my own, because I received very little training in the beginning.

Phenomenal company, great leadership and an incredibly positive work environment.
Positive, upbeat, hard working group that are driven to lead their industry and at the same time, educate others within their industry.
Highly intelligent, very compassionate executive team that will help those working for them succeed and reach new heights personally and professionally.

This job is for anyone wanting to advance in their career. There is so much room for growth in really any position. We work hard, and collaborate together. We all have the same mission and we are passionate about helping the community.

My review of the company is that they are more concerned with the bottom line than the happiness of thepeople who enter the gates to build memories with their families at the ball park.

SFM is a wonderful place to work.  There is a fun, but serious environment and has a family atmosphere.  Everyone is caring and considerate. I love the ability to work independently, without people breathing down your neck.

The coworkers are great and most managers are great. It's a laid back environment. They offer flexibility on work hours (meaning they're not sticklers on "must work 8a-5p"). Pay is below average, other than that it's a good place to work.
