High Turnover For a Reason

Pros

Beautiful property. The restaurant is really great. There's honestly just not enough pros to list here to even meet the minimum required. Sadly. They might seem like they have it all together, but they do not.

Cons

Terrible micro-management in all levels. From the owner down, everyone will second-guess every move you make and every word you speak. You have to be given lessons on how to craft e-mails to specific people so that you don't create an avalanche of emails for other people. Ridiculous. Compensation is ridiculously low, compared to what they expect from you. The rules will change from one week to the next with no warning or explanation. The property itself (the land) is beautiful, but the repairs are just not being done because they do not want to spend the money. You will discover that nobody has been in their positions for very long. I think two years was the max and she was actively looking for other employement when I left.

Pros

The staff is terrific, lovely grounds, Season's food is the best in the area

Cons

Toxic environment that stems from the owner. Micro manager to the nth degree, structure is of a major corporation from 25 years ago, thrives on chaos, does not walk the talk. Mgrs walk on egg shells. Sad, it could be so much more. It's a black cocktail dress that's faded.
