Review of Sunset Pools Management Inc

This is the most unprofessional company I have eve...

This is the most unprofessional company I have ever worked for. They exploit on immigrants and young students to work and don't pay overtime. Management is unprofessional, many of the lifeguards they hire can't actually swim and they fail the test however the company pushes them through because they need guards and there usually foreigners on workers visas so they're able to pay them substantially less. In short don't hire sunset and don't definitely go work for this dysfunctional company.

In response to the owner:Thank you for your response. Yes you are correct I have worked over 400 hours and not just one but two summers so I clearly can attest to the dysfunctional managing style of sunset pools. I stand by my comments, as of today sunset MGMT pools owes me thousands of dollars in overtime pay that has not been payed. Your company takes advantage of students and young adults, having them work 40+ plus hours week(in the sun) while not paying overtime is morally wrong. Management use to beg me to work these 60-50 hour work week. They will call you on your days off and beg you to work and still will not pay overtime. The company doesn't pay overtime to students but the owners can drive around in flashy sports cars. Sunset pool management does not care about there workers, I often found myself fighting for the basics of life guarding like equipment that worked, shade from the direct sunlight or a pool that was operational. Things seemed to always break at sunset pools management. I spent weeks sitting at pools that were closed or not operational because they needed some repair that was well overdue however management always took the band-aid like approach rather than spending the actual money needed and so things continued to break. This is NOT a GOOD company to work for.
Lastly I stand by my claim that not all your lifeguards could pass the red-cross life guarding swim test without accommodations. I've watched this happen on two different occasions, the summers of 2017 and 2019. I find this to be dangerous and irresponsible and is only a ticking disaster waiting to happen. Lastly I'll add that I never complained while working because I did not want to be negatively retaliated against and because it's not my job to tell you guys how bad you are. You can figure that through some reflection. Once again thanks for your response,
