- Former Employee, more than 3 years★★★★★
Pros
Fun place to work last worked there in 2017 but can't go back that far on this site. I don't really want to add my current employer as this is my throwaway account. Had great fun working for Thorpe park during my summer holidays and over fright nights. I was there for 3 seasons.
Cons
It's only a part time job for me so I don't really have any cons. I would imagine full time the pay is low as it is low skilled but the atmosphere is great and the friends you can make are amazing.
