Pros

Very difficult to jot down any pros. The company is great at marketing themselves to business partners, clients, and employees on falsified lies and lack of transparency.

Cons

This company needs to be investigated by the BBB and the IRS. The way they conduct business is unfathomable! Blatant lying to the clients who have invested millions of dollars, lying regarding quotes for projects, lying regarding timeline completion, all just so the clients will pay them their portion of what’s owed. They have no care for their clients once the contract is signed. When you work along side the heads of the company and the results remain the same, that’s when you know this company should NOT be a company. There’s no 401K, 1 week of PTO, dental and health insurance is pretty much an old school ppo plan, you pay for almost everything out of your pocket in cash. PTO and healthcare doesn’t kick in for 90 days. You’ll be expected to LIVE on the campground for 6 months or more. Regardless of what family and personal responsibilities you have to take care of. Prepare to work 70-80 hour work weeks on a salary. The bonus they have, is not something the accounting team manages, you manage your own bonus, if you do achieve it, you have to hunt down upper management in order to get paid out. If you request petty cash or need cash for the registers on site, they will ADD THOSE FUNDS INTO YOUR PERSONAL TAKE HOME CHECK!!!!!! They tie in the business accounting needs for the campground to your personal take home pay!!! At the end of the year when you do taxes, your total gross income will be off and look like you took in MORE than what you did WITHOUT paying taxes on it!! Speaking of taxes, if you live in a state the requires companies to pay the employees local wage taxes for WHERE THAT EMPLOYEE PHYSICALLY WORKS. This company WILL NOT DO THAT!!!! They will tell you they’re not tax experts and that we work for AOS who is located in FL. FL has pretty much little to no taxes for businesses and residents. They will put on your LEGAL RESIDENCY FORM that you physically work in FL when you do not. This avoids them paying taxes to local and state!!! This company has done so many things wrong by the book. Not every state has the same exemptions, mitigations, laws, tax requirements.

Pros

AOS is a company on the forefront of the Outdoor Hospitality industry. They sincerely care for all of their employees - both on the ground at properties and in administrative roles at the corporate level. They service corporate clients, but treat their company and staff like a small family owned business. They are led by strong, independent, forward-thinking women who take great pride in their work. They respect those who respect them and prefer to offer growth from within the company. They truly cultivate a team mentality for all employees and offer as much support for professional and personal circumstances as they can. While loyalty and passion for this industry cannot be taught, it is highly rewarded and cherished at AOS.

Cons

AOS is BUSY! The "firehose treatment" is often given for new hires, but they ensure training and support to all staff. Employees are held to a high expectation to uphold professionalism and work together with/as a team on a daily basis. Employees must be willing to advocate and seek support for themselves and their staff. AOS is happy to help any way they can, but issues must be identified and expressed so they can work with you to resolve them.

Pros

You will get to meet many new people. Because the turnover is insane.

Cons

Do not believe a word they say. Everyone from regional up is useless. They will expect top tier performance with no training, no backing and a mess dropped in your lap.
