Overall, my experience has been good for the most part. Currently, I'm in my 3rd year as an employee for Cedar Fair. I've been an Admissions Associate for the summer season for 2 years and an Usher for the Halloween Haunt season for 3 years. The fellow associates and supervisors I've worked with have been very helpful and I've felt that my time working there has been a success. Some issues I've faced is some guest interactions, since sometimes a lack of understanding of park policies plus the chaos of busy days can make for some challenging interactions. Also, an issue I've noticed when working in Admissions is over-staffing the department, which can lead to times where there's not much work for associates to do. When it comes to benefits, there are many positive ones, with my favorite being complimentary tickets that are earned for working a set number of hours that can be used for visits to the park. Another perk is using your ID for entry into other Cedar Fair parks.
This was an amazing first job for me, I started at 16 last year. Unfortunately, I found that the norm was for high schoolers to work 40+ hours a week. We work off a point system, making the workplace feel very juvenile, and there is little to no leniency for absences. I made long lasting connections with my fellow co-workers and overall loved my position. In the end, it was management and upper-management made me leave.
I have been working for Cedar Fair for 2 years now and I have loved every second of it. It's fast-paced and has given me lots of skills that I will be able to carry on into my future. The management at Cedar Fair communicates well and provides flexibility to their associates. The people I work with are all very friendly. Working here is fun for me!
