What is the culture like at Angel Fire Resort? We are working hard to build a culture based on accountability, trust, and hard work so that we become a place of employment where:
- Cleanliness and customer service are top priorities – don’t forget that we sell fun!
- People talk to each other, not about each other (the only exception is talking about how to help someone be better)
- You have the opportunity to try and fail (to an extent)
- No one solves your problems for you and instead, senior leadership pushes everyone to be the best versions of themselves and solve their own problems
- Those who are engaged, accountable, self-motivated, proactive, work hard, have impact, and take responsibility for their actions thrive
- Those who are frequently not accountable, blame, judge, make excuses, vent, see themselves as a victim of their circumstances, etc. are not welcome
- Everyone is helpful and gives each other the benefit of the doubt (we assume the best of others)
- Everyone helps other departments so the resort as a whole can succeed
- “That’s not my job” or “that’s not in my job description” are phrases never heard
- If you work hard, persevere, have a vision, sense of ownership, and attention to detail you may have the opportunity to climb the ladder and build a great career
- If you are content in your job and don’t want to climb the ladder, that may be fine too as long as you excel in your role
- People are expected to see themselves as coachable lifelong learners and are given training materials and books to support their love of learning
- We provide good trainings but we also expect everyone to seek out the training they need and be proactive and to put their destiny in their own hands
- Having a positive, helpful, adaptable, can-do attitude is expected
- We speak up for ourselves and others
- When feeling frustrated with another person, we look to change our own behavior first, asking, “What’s my part?” before finger pointing or blaming others
- The people who work here love the Angel Fire lifestyle and the things that make Angel Fire unique and they enjoy being able to make an impact and be a part of improving the things that are not great yet
- Your team is made up of everyone—inside and outside the company—important to achieving your success, goals, project, or mission.

I see you use E-Verify. What is that and how will it affect me if I am offered a job? E-Verify is an Internet-based system that compares information from your Form I-9, Employment Eligibility Verification, to Department of Homeland Security (DHS), Social Security Administration (SSA), and Department of State (DOS) records to confirm that you are authorized to work in the United States. Once you have accepted an offer of employment and completed Form I-9, Angel Fire Resort takes the information from your Form I-9 and enters it into E-Verify. E-Verify checks the information against records available to DHS and provides Angel Fire Resort with a case result within 3-5 seconds.
