Pros
Great Place To work in the area
Cons
Need a change on my career
- Former Employee★★★★★
Pros
Upscale atmosphere Great Security on property Good employee discount on properties
Cons
Work schedules did not come out in a timely manner. Schedules would not be available to staff 2 weeks in advance or 1 week in advance. Ultimately there were a few times when the work schedule was released 2-3 days before the actual work week. Intensive and extensive training was required before you are able to start accepting tips. This process provides the clients with upscale service however the pay did not match the service. OF the automatic 22% tip you only received 15-16% after tipping out other staff. In addition this automatic tip was generated after guests utilized their membership discount leaving your total check less 20% and from that you took home 15%.

I want this review to get to Mr. Leone
Oct 3, 2022 - Pool and Beach Attendant in Palm Beach, FLRecommendCEO ApprovalBusiness OutlookPros
Mr. Leone, I wasn't sure of the best method to reach you, but I hope one day you see this. I want you to know that the best team ever, regarding care of management, is the pool and beach team. I worked there from 2018-2021, and left because I moved and got married. I have to say, my managers were the most caring people I have ever met. They treated me like an equal, spoke to me like a friend, and mentored me when I needed it. We were truly a family and I am so proud of being a part of the pool and beach team at the breakers. From the start it was evident that if you took yourself seriously, so would the company. I grew so much while I was there and now am married and running a full time designing business. I equate many of the life lessons I know now, to my time at the breakers.
Cons
