Pros

It’s hard to put into words what this company means to me. I found my heart, soul, and joy for this industry here—over and over again. I started at the very beginning, an entry-level lifeguard and swim instructor who wasn’t the best student but a passion for getting my hands dirty, being around water, and bringing people together through experiences and events. I had no idea that my journey would evolve into becoming an Operations Manager, then a Vice President, to an Senior VP. Being a brand-new female leader was something I wasn’t sure I could do—but my team and the peers around me helped me find my “we.” They reminded me that leadership isn’t about having all the answers; it’s about growing together, lifting others, and showing up for one another. I’m incredibly thankful to this company for taking a chance on me—for giving me a few inches and letting me run miles. Along the way, I’ve learned, stumbled, grown, and continue to be challenged every single day. I’m not just learning—I’m also asked to teach, to mentor, and to help others grow with me.The job, to me and to many, is about respecting the past, accepting responsibility, and paying it forward. And this company truly lives that. It’s genuine, real, and meaningful. To have found a community here during a time when I wasn’t sure who I was or what I wanted—and to still be evolving today—is a gift. Our frontline staff is incredible, and our C-Suite is filled with some of the most authentic, kind, and strong mentors I’ve ever worked with. I’m forever grateful—not just to have had a job here, but to have been given the space to build a career, a family, and a life. Working for this company and being part of the sports, outdoor recreation, and active lifestyle industry is something truly special—and something I’ll always be proud of. If you’re looking for a place to grow, to belong, and to discover both your career and your purpose...Bay Club is where you’ll find not just your community, but your home.

Pros

- Strong Team Culture: The coworkers are the highlight of the company. It’s a group of genuinely hard workers who are always willing to help. - High-Energy Environment: The pace is fast, but you never feel isolated because there is a lot of support from the people around you along the way. - Fair Expense Reimbursement: The company is good about reimbursing for miles driven and providing stipends for employee use of internet and cell phones, which is a helpful and appreciated perk.

Cons

- Stagnant Compensation: I have not received a pay increase in 3 years. With the cost of living rising rapidly, the lack of merit-based raises makes it difficult to stay long-term. - Visibility over Performance: Career growth and raises seem to depend more on how much "visibility" you have with leadership rather than the actual quality of your work. If you aren't constantly in the spotlight, your contributions are easily overlooked. - Unmet Benefit Promises: When I started, there was an expectation of certain benefits and company assets as the organization grew. However, after 4 years, many of these have not materialized for my role, which makes it feel like the initial promises haven't been kept. - Professional Standstill: Despite the company’s growth, there are very few actual growth opportunities for long-term employees. It is disheartening to feel stuck in the same place for years while the company continues to scale.
