Working at the golf-courses in theory may sound like a lovely job but you start at the bottom (cart barn for cart rentals or Ambassador. The days and shifts aren't available for YOU to pick...they put you where you're needed. You can't pick the course to work in---they put you where there are openings. Seniority takes precidence for moving into other positions and time slots. Take in account of the weather too. Heat and humidity are the main factors and not so glamorous to ride/drive around in your golf-cart. Oh---the courses provide the carts for the ambassadors. Starters are better positions in that they have "air" conditioning to work in when they're not outside directing folks. You can take time off but there are restrictions---someone else posted those. Pay is low (minimum wage) but a cushion for "fun" money perhaps. Someone said you can get a discount at the CC restaurants but you have to be management, I think, for that to kick in. MIght have been something in the past but no longer. The Golf Management does have a "holiday" event for the families and employees but it's not like it once was as there are so many now to attend. As someone else stated there is a golf-outing for employees too. You might be better served by contacting the actual people in charge or look online (Villages sites) for better information.
