Sam & Susan Torn
Current Employee – been working at Camp Ozark full-time for less than a year
Pros – It's a great opportunity for a summer job. It pushes you to the limit mentally, physically, and spiritually but it is all worth it. You get to invest in so many kid's lives and make a ton of great friends with the other counselors from all over the country.
Cons – It's not so much a con, but Ozark is an extremely demanding job. You may not get to be a counselor for your desired age group of kids, but you have to do it anyways. Sometimes your kids are a pain, but you have to love them anyways. Don't do this if you are not willing to give your full commitment.
Advice to Senior Management – Always listen to the counselors and be willing to work with them and help them out.
Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend – I'm optimistic about the outlook for this company

Former Employee – worked at Camp Ozark
Pros – The upper staff are all energetic and have good leadership/management skills. The camp program is well organized and executed. It was a lot of fun and there is a great opportunity to make friends with other counselors.
Cons – The experience is much more rewarding than the pay. The days are fun, but you need to have very high energy to be able to keep up with everything.
Advice to Senior Management – They are doing a really great job at recruiting good counselors. Everything is very well organized, but it is also understandably somewhat difficult to implement changes.
Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend

Former Employee – worked at Camp Ozark
Pros – Alot of very fun people work there who love Jesus alot.
Cons – The management is kinda messed up at times. When I was there, a few years back, there was no sense of servant leadership... which is crazy in a Christian camp. With the exception of a couple guys a little higher up, Most people in power positions seemed to use that power to do what they wanted- and most counselors knew it

Former Employee – worked at Camp Ozark
Pros – Plenty of opportunities to network with other individuals. Exciting, dynamic workplace. No two days will be the same, and no two weeks will feel the same.
Cons – Management tends to pick favorites. Still it seems like the best people for the job float to the top, just sometimes people who aren't the best float to the top with them.
Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend
