Working at california's great america:

First of all california's great america was the first job i ever took. I was 17 and it seem okay at first. Management was cool and my co-workers were great, but as the season progress people started to become to power hungry.

cons: co-workers who got promoted, but then started to be power hungry. If you were to piss them off, they would try to get you fired! Plus it's funny how you get high school kid supervisors trying to have all the power, but they get very abusive. The work you do is horrible. Basically you have to do everything the old fashion way. We have to count our cashiers at the end of the day and they will get angry at you if you are a dollar short! Best believe it though.

pros: meeting new people. getting in the amusement park is free. flexible schedule. some areas have relaxing work places

Californias Great America Salary and Benefits:

starting wage: $8.00
perks: free admissions to the park. free parking. 25% discounts. discount tickets
