Pros

Great CEO, growing leadership team, great perks

Cons

Growth can be hard and change is tough. They really are stepping up their HR/onboarding process, and the culture is lifting up. Hard work pays off.

Thank you for taking a minute to share this feedback! It means a lot! We are so fortunate to have the industry-BEST teams of employees and contractors in our fast-paced and growth oriented enterprise family.

Pros

Travel Benefits, 401K, Insurance, some good people.

Cons

There are honestly more downsides to working for this company than I care to catalog. The con to one of my pros - you get travel benefits, but good luck using them! If you would like to go to the beach in the winter this would be a great benefit for you. Trying to get a vacation in the summer is difficult as the travel season (May through September) turns the entire enterprise into disorganized chaos. As mentioned in other reviews (and by people more eloquent than myself), the environment is very toxic. Employees who could actually make a change are fired and the ones that cause multiple problems are praised. Although, as a female, I do not believe that there is anything sexist in play. Policies are only adhered to when it is convenient to management. There have been numerous cases where two employees have done the same thing and only one has been fired for it. This company knows that they have bad ratings across job sites and have been asking employees to leave good reviews. Take everything you read with a grain of salt because you never know if a former employee is disgruntled or a current employee has been asked to leave a good review.

Thank you for your insight, and just being completely transparent – we do invite employees and guests who have had a good experience to share it with others – in any format/ or any website they feel comfortable with. We are proud of our company and our employees, and we want to recruit even more awesome people to join our team. Our travel benefits are a distinctive perk, and we love getting to hear about lots of memorable trips, as our employees have open access to our availability, just as our guests do. If you need help booking travel, HR can help. I would very much like to talk with you about your comments regarding the disparity in applying policies consistently and to gain a better understanding of the specific instances to which you are referring. HR is ready to investigate and address any issues that might come to light. With the off season upon us, we are taking your advice to review our past season performance and identify trends and proactively address to improve next season’s performance. I would welcome your insights into where we can make changes that improve both our guest experience and our employees’ work life. Please reach out to me at hr@metacoastal.com.
