Noah's Ark Waterpark Reviews

Pros

Great people to work with, employee parties, lifeguard olympics, learning about other cultures, inclusive, good pay

Cons

Sometimes it can get really cold out, there's the occasional coworker everyone hates, when someone doesn't come in for work, rotations can get a little long

Advice to Management

Our management is fantastic. They care and are supporting of those they like, but if they don't like you, you will know.

Pros

It was very fun because the staff is great with new employees.

Cons

Too many hours during the season peak and then lack of hours when the season is over so you don't get a lot of hours to work.

Pros

Meeting people from all over the world was an amazing experience! There were always extra shifts and hours available if you wanted them! I thought it was a super fun summer job and I was treated fairly by management,

Cons

The housing is terrible. The hotel I was assigned had mushrooms growing in the bathroom and the locks didn't work, Management seemed to have favorites.

Pros

Love working with people from many different backgrounds and cultures. Fun atmosphere, and great seasonal managers. Plenty of hours

Cons

The housing is in disrepair and no one should ever have to live in it. Full time staff do not always appear to care about employees - i.e. still not knowing names at the end of the summer, fewer employee events every year, and cutting costs for employee events.

Advice to Management

Invest in your employees, and they will want to come to work and do a good job! People who feel welcome and appreciated work harder and more efficiently.

Pros

The job itself was not bad. Many of the managers were decent and the employees were a lot of fun.

Cons

At one point a manager sent everyone upstairs except for him and a female Ukrainian employee. He proceeded to yell at her calling her an alcoholic, cussing at her, and threatening to send her home because she missed work too many times. Maybe it's not my place to say, but I believe a manager should give a warning then follow through with it if needed. I don't find it necessary to abuse employees like he did, especially ones who feel that they are trapped and threatened.

Pros

Got to be outside, management will organize fun activities outside of work, able to meet people from different countries, free use of park on your day off.

Cons

Low pay, no overtime pay, managers constantly changed due to several quitting.

Advice to Management

Be more selective when it comes to appointing managers.

Pros

Working here during the summer is a lot of fun. You will meet young people from around the world and staff are provided with many employee parties that make working for the company a great summer job.

Cons

The hours are very long and working outside all day can be a challenge. When I started I only made minimum wage and it made finances difficult.

Advice to Management

The activities provided for the staff were a great way to connect all of us. The housing provided was a little rustic and could use some improvements. All in all I really liked my experience with the company.

Pros

Great working environment with people who care about you. It is fun learning about the different cultures of the international students. If you choose to work for the company for more than one season, your odds of being promoted are pretty decent.

Cons

There was sometimes a lot of standing around time. It was nice to have a break, but if you are the type of person that must always be busy then this job might not be for you. The housing is awful. It cost $10/day which is cheap for Wisconsin Dells, but my room was moldy, old, and the door could have easily been broken and myself hurt.

Advice to Management

Keep up the good work.
