Pros

I cannot see any other than adding ink to my resume

Cons

Low pay, terrible benefits, micro managed to death, inhumane treatment, ignored by upper management if you're not FNB or Golf, alleged career opportunities are a joke including transfers unless you're a GM or Golf Superintendent, good salesmen that lied from the start of taking this project over. Did I mention the low compensation?

Pros

There are no pros. Maybe health benefits but that's anywhere.

Cons

Everything. They run a skeleton crew. Hiring temps in the busy season. Constantly having to train a new temp line cook everyday. Line cooks get crazy overtime with check twice the size of mine because of all the overtime. Then when it's slow they cut what hourly staff there is and make the salary sous do all the work. 65-75 hour work weeks means you make nothing an hour. Head chef just leaves around 6pm every nite without communication. I think ive seen him put a knife to a cutting board maybe a handful of times other than that he just sits in his office doom scrolling on his phone taping weed and chewing tobacco. Its horrible this company is awful. At the time the are being sued by the HOA for some breach of contract so there is that. I once needed HR. There is none on site so I called their number and got a voice recording with them following up with a phone call 3 months later Troon is awful. Im actively trying to leave dont join this company.
