Pros
- good ski time depending on role - help with getting seasonal french visas for non-EU passport holders - fun team to work in - good managers - good locations to work in - provide accommodation/food (at a reasonable cost)
Cons
- low pay compared to other ski companies (especially bigger operators e.g. inghams/crystal/some of the chalet companies), how much this bothers you depends what you want from a ski season(s) - UK office can be hit and miss depending on who you deal with but generally good. - owned by Travelopia, which is owned by a big private equity firm (KKR) who pays very little tax and generally is seen as a “maximise profit at all costs” type of company - which will often trickle down to the front line despite management being a nice bunch of people. Again, how much this bothers you depends on what you want out of a ski season! - not particularly diverse in its intake, but that’s not unique to Skibound, more of an Alps/ski season problem.
