Fun, not a positive environment - Anonymous employee Pali Adventures Employee Review

Such an amazing and dynamic work environment, would go back every summer if I could. You meet the most amazing people whilst growing in such a collaborative and safe space.

Only con would be sometimes promotions are based on the length of time you’ve worked there rather than who’s most fit/qualified for the job. Although this has improved over the years.

-Staff community is amazing, supportive, and fun. The true heart of the organization. -Outdoor environment and direct work with kids is very rewarding. -Colleagues consistently step up up for each other (albeit compensating for issues that come from above).

-The primary source of instability comes from the owner's leadership style. Expectations shift frequently and without clear communication, creating confusion for what I've noticed for both the year round staff, but it also manages to trickle down to the seasonal staff level too. -Strategic direction changes abruptly, often based on the owner's evolving preferences rather than a consistent long term plan. -High turnover in critical roles, especially directors and 'c suite' roles. This stems from the difficulty of operating under an ever changing set of impossible standards and priorities. -Feedback can feel very contradictory. Staff may receive positive reinforcement only to face unexpected reversals soon after. -Work life balance is severely limited due to expectations that staff remain constantly available and hyper flexible regardless of their role or level. -Compensation tends to be minimized whenever possible.
