https://behindthethrills.com/2019/07/seaworld-shakes-up-board-and-adds-new-director/ Don't know how I feel about this... Hopefully they can cut costs on rides instead of staffing.

You know what's so funny, is that to get most promotions they require you to be over the top with communication with your higher ups. HOWEVER the higher ups do not communicate with anyone lower than them. so it gets ridiculous. VACATION NEWS???? we... —  read more 

Am I losing it, or is the thread about corporate vp from yesterday/this morning gone?

It's almost August, I hope everyone has updated their resumes. And if you get laid off have some self respect and don't go back if they offer you your job back like a loser. They love to play you like a puppet, pulling your strings. They know you are... —  read more 

Shocked at all of these sad sack posts. You still don’t get it! This company almost filed bankruptcy. This company almost sold San Diego. This company was almost owned by the bank. You’re worried about food in the cafeteria or toilet paper or your... —  read more 

So is the plan to slowly make the cafeteria worse and worse until everyone is using the self serve kiosks? I'm sure the plan would then be to eliminate it entirely and jack up the prices at the kiosks. I'm on to you Seaworld. I knew it was downhill... —  read more 

We already have huge attrition at SeaWorld - people are leaving constantly and not many of them are replaced. So why exactly do we need more layoffs? It makes no sense - especially considering that finding any replacements is getting harder and... —  read more 

The company used to be able to say they wanted a one on one relationship with employees but with so little leadership, we are on our own. Our supervisors and managers don’t even care anymore or don’t have time to care. At our park, we used to have... —  read more 

Do we have any idea when we can expect more?

It’s time we seriously think about unionizing. The company no longer values their employees. You can argue it’s a different company but all SeaWorld thinks about is keeping Hill Path happy. Our benefits are always in danger and a union would protect... —  read more 

We need to start a petition, im in, but who else is?

Still no rumors on max amount of earnable time off in 2020?

Have THEY announced what “transition” time they will be issuing in January? All the signs are pointing to a significant reduction in available “Personal time off”,all of the senior folks that have vested time are being reset. You can dress up the pig... —  read more 

I heard that the new vacation policy is based on hours worked......does it roll over every year? What is the max accrual (is it based on tenure)? Can we still sell it back to off set medical insurance costs?

Anybody watch? Sad.....

Vacation Time for 2020 Reduced. Greedy b**’s!

You only get severance if you are laid off. And another thing to keep in mind, a policy they put in place in 2017 and never told hourly staff about it—if you resign, you will not receive any unused vacation. In addition, once you give notice, you’re... —  read more

Or is it just full timers, no matter how long you've been with SeaWorld?

Be prepared for more layoffs in San Diego. These people put in place to continue cuts with no regard to how it will affect the running of the park and all they see is an opportunity to make a name for themselves.

Scott R and Walter tour SW SD yesterday with the park president and park VPs. Scott looked at everything and was yelling at the group at one point. there was speculation he was going to let more go. did anyone hear more about it? was anyone let go?

Layoffs happening right now but they are hiding it from the media (scope, locations, etc...)

BAT id--ts strike again. I’m sure they all have their resumes ready. This company is truly in the toilet. Leave now if you can

Was this a lay-off - firing - quit?

I’m guessing not the last.

BAT in Va. Good times to follow.......just relax and let it happen.

In orlando word is going around that the VP of culinary is quitting. Then the communication meeting that was already scheduled once was outright cancelled. This combined with additional whispers of another wave of cuts coming isnt a good sign.
