Yep been there done that TL;DR in the Shopify sphere all big companies do this at some point. Lifty, software dev or a tech manager. Biz-speak is everywhere. I'd say try to have a good season at a ski resort. Don't expect more you are a commodity no matter where you work if you call it that.
Best part-time job I had was at The Canyons in the cash room back in the day. I did accounting and everyone would come to work at 4 PM after being on the mountain. We'd all cheer when someone said "I'm so hung over" and puke in the bathroom. Yay!

Just goes to show job security ain't what it used to be, no matter how well you perform. Best we can do is keep our skills sharp and network solid.

Good reminder of what it can be like in corporate America. I'd hate to be sitting there doing a great job and then just get laid off anyway.
Come on, I figured the Vail apologists could do a better job.
"They're doing a great job running the resorts they own." "People are too critical." Etc. etc.
It's part of the problem with being giant and publicly traded. A small privately owned mountain could respond much more efficiently to what their customers want instead of what their shareholders want.
