Prévisions de Neige pour Stevens Pass

Vail has purchased Stevens Pass. Their corporate 'culture' is so bad for Stevens that the lifties and operators keep quitting in groups. Vail classified them all as agricultural workers to avoid paying the traditional "over 40 hrs = 150% overtime" rate, and continues to pick on them and fire them for irrelevant corporate issues even though they are so short staffed they can't fully open the mountain. This year customers have seen the results, not enough staff to fully open after a decent winter storm, lifts not running on bluebird days, lack of grooming, lack of pro patrollers who can lead and keep terrain areas open. Over 80% turnover rate. At first it seemed like Vail was improving things, making improvements to a few chairs. Now it seems they are hell bent on managing this wonderful hill into the ground. They just don't seem to be able to adapt to the local culture in Washington State.
