Pros
The opportunity to work abroad and travel to beautiful destinations. A group of coworkers that become family.
Kontras
Employees are not properly trained and as a result they are thrown into situations where they are guiding +/-30 students, by themselves, in a city they have never even been to. We paid to become CPR/First Aid certified, however we never got the in-person portion of the training. When you're solely responsible for the wellbeing of a group of students, this lack of preparation on the part of Bus2Alps is unacceptable. Management is condescending and disorganized. Constructive criticism is great, but compliments when they are deserved would be nice. You spend a semester feeling overworked and undervalued. I thrive in a competitive atmosphere, so I enjoy the sales culture of the company. However, I also play by the rules and don't step on people's toes. According to management, this is how everyone should be conducting business. Unfortunately, few people adhere to this guideline and, as a result, their sales are higher and therefore they are praised.
