Not much room for growth internally.
Not gauranteed a good bonus which is equivalent to half my monthly income most months: earnings were input based on $1,000/month in commission but can be as low at $300 on a slow month.

Thank you for taking the time to provide your feedback. We truly value the insights from our team members as they help us understand where we can improve and better support our staff.
We're sorry to hear that you feel there isn't much room for growth internally. Career development is a priority for us, and we are actively working on creating more opportunities for advancement within the company. We encourage you to discuss your career aspirations with your manager or HR so we can help identify potential pathways and development programs that align with your goals.
Regarding your concerns about the variability of bonuses, we understand how challenging it can be when commission-based income fluctuates. While the nature of sales as a Vacation Planner can lead to variable earnings, we strive to provide a supportive environment that helps our Guest Services team achieve their targets consistently. We are continually reviewing our compensation and bonus structures to ensure they are both competitive and fair.
If you have specific suggestions on how we can improve in these areas, we would love to hear them. Your feedback is invaluable in helping us create a better working environment for everyone. Please feel free to reach out to HR directly to discuss your thoughts further.
Thank you again for your honest feedback and for your contributions to our team.
Culture of empathy and genuine desire to work together for a common goal. Reasonable expectations of employees and thoughtful leadership team. The family that owns the company are genuinely kind, caring people and it's a pleasure to work for them.
Cons
Small company with limited growth potential for those looking for opportunities for upward mobility, but it's still a great place to work and many employees have made it a long-term home.
Leadership truly leads with empathy and there is well-rounded understanding of the challenges each role faces- none of which are taken for granted.
Great location by the IOP beach
Company is willing and open to invest in the professional development of it's team members- you just have to make a case and ask :)
Cons
Small company so advancement requires you to really take initiative and curve out your path forward. (not that this is really a con)
