Stressful environment

Instructor (Former Employee) - Vancouver, BC - 12 June 2022

Company hires inexperienced teenagers and gives them minimal training. Spring break camps are awful, spending hours in downpour with only a lunch break. Felt anxious and unprepared for my job and the days were much too long.

Instructor (Former Employee) - Vancouver, BC - 20 October 2019

This workplace is extremely enjoyable for those who enjoy to work with children, bike, and teach. The satisfaction of successfully teaching skills is very rewarding and I would highly recommend it.

It was fun to work there and interact with interesting individuals.

Customer Service Associate (Former Employee) - Vancouver, BC - 1 October 2019

I would answer emails about camp schedules and occasionally answer phone calls. If I was ever stuck or needed assistance, the management would help right away and teach us. Great learning experience.

Productive workplace with genuine workers who care about the work being done.

Manager (Former Employee) - Vancouver, BC - 15 July 2019

A difficult but rewarding job that ensures a renewed sense of community in the workplace. Working with children is most definitely not the easiest job in the world, nor is dealing with parents but having some hardworking employees made my job as management a lot more pleasant.

Cons

Outdoor work

The flexible schedule and outdoor work environment are a bonus, but as a whole the company is extremely disorganized.

Instructor (Former Employee) - Vancouver - 27 February 2018

I enjoyed some aspects of my job with pedalheads, but overall I found the upper management to be disorganized which made accomplishing anything difficult at times. Being able to work outside and with young people was very nice, but the lack of communication from the main office was hard to deal with.

Really fun atmosphere to learn how to work with kids!

bike instructor (Former Employee) - Vancouver, BC - 26 March 2017

I really enjoyed it. The mornings were often the best because when afternoon rolled around, it was really hot in the summer. Hardest part of the job was bending over for hours trying to teach kids how to balance.
