"My desire to snowboard all the time was flanked by my desire to live an affordable lifestyle. Pay was not commiserate to the cost of living."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"Allow cash reserves to flow down to line level employees. Vail Resorts was a big contributor to the inflation of real estate in Summit County, and that meant that the cost of living was enormous. They continually cut wages during the Great Recession, yet continually added to their cash reserves. This combination effectively gutted the local economy and fed profits to the C class and share holders. It had the appearance of being a top heavy company."
