Enlightening - Cook The Home Ranch Employee Review

Fun summer job. Get to be in a beautiful location up in the Rockies for the summer

Does not pay very much (partly because they are housing and feeding you)

-Great location -Staff can take part in guest activities (riding, hiking, fishing, etc.) -Hard-working, FUN staff -2 days off every week! -Only 20 minutes from Steamboat -Phenomenal guests that truly care about the staff

-Pay is not comparable to industry standard for skilled positions -Lots of supervisor turnover -Seemingly unethical discrepancies in the tip policy that are unclear to both guests and staff -Staff housing and board is charged at an astronomical rate compared to other guest ranches in the area and beyond -Staff meals are very inconsistent regarding quality, time, and level of options -Lack of interest, both capital and physical, from owners is very apparent -Staff housing is a joke, some of the living situations are truly deplorable (No working door, mold, no water pressure in showers, etc.)
