Pros

Beautiful location, prestigious 5-star resort

Cons

Had to park in a dirt parking lot and wait for a company operated shuttle to get to work, then had to wait for the shuttle behind a gate by the dumpster to get back to the car

Pros

It’s a beautiful location with so much potential. The environment is busy, fast paced, and fun. Thriving there means you have to think on your feet and work fast to solve problems on the spot.

Cons

I really fought to get myself promoted and it never happened. I was described as a “lead cook” without the promotion, pay, or training I desired. In my 3.5 years working there I saw about ten chefs of various positions come and go.
