Saunders Farm

A typical day involves a very fast-paced environment working alongside a dedicated front-line team. I learned a great deal about handling high customer volumes and building customer service stamina. The most enjoyable part of the job was absolutely the strong camaraderie among the seasonal staff.
​However, the hardest part of the job was navigating the expectations of upper management. In my experience, the workplace culture felt forced, and employees were often expected to prioritize the farm over their personal boundaries. During peak seasons, the schedule was demanding, the team often felt understaffed, and it was frequently difficult to take our scheduled breaks. I also experienced and observed that mandatory prep time, often requiring staff to arrive 1 to 2 hours early for certain roles, was not compensated. Furthermore, I witnessed upper management reacting very unprofessionally when employees attempted to openly discuss their wages with one another, which created an uncomfortable environment.

At Saunders Farm, I always had a great day at work. I got the chance to meet very many people. It was very relaxed and calm most of the time

I had a great supervisor as well as co-workers. We would always help each other when we could as a team. Saunders gives you the chance to interact with co-workers and guests while working at the same time. It is a great balance since it almost doesn't feel like work. I learned that the best thing you can do in a stressful situation is just to ask your team for some help or advice. They are always willing. I also learned to break out of my shell. I learned to express myself and that it very possible to have a great time while working and satisfying customers.

The hardest part of the job is when there are large groups of people during weddings or other events. It become very busy and we usually are running around to assure that everything is perfect for the guests however, with great employees and teamwork, the job is always fun.The most enjoyable moments I have had working were when we had a new simulation ride and I was chosen to be the host to create awareness of the ride. I played music, danced and talked to many people. I always looked forward to working.

This was my first job ever and I really enjoyed it. It energizes you and the people, especially your scream masters, are really welcoming. There are just two auditions (one is a callback) and it’s basic theatre drills plus they teach you how to effectively do a scare. The guests get very disrespectful at times though (which is expected). It’s a very social workplace and if you’re looking to work here for the first time there are so many people who can help you out one on one and provide you with support and makeup wipes when you forget them 🥲 Try to be flexible because sometimes you could be switching characters within a haunt or even changing haunts entirely.

I only worked there for a month during the halloween season but even with such little time with Saunders I had an amazing time working for them.
I worked as an actor so I can't confirm whether any of the other positions are as good as mine but from what I saw they were nice as well.
Only problem I had with Saunders was almost loosing a bonus because I got sick on the job, but that conflict was resolved rather quickly which I am grateful for.
Overall, great place to work on the side if you're looking at working multiple jobs (though if you're working the halloween season I would say otherwise.)

On a typical day, I would arrive at 9am and prep the food for the days service as well as cook it for the customers. On occasion we help with the dishes and we share cleaning responsibilities but everyone is extremely helpful. The most difficult part of the job is during haunting season when thing are the most busy and there are huge line ups for food. The best part of the job is the friendships you'll build while working there and also all the food you get to eat

Worked in confectionary and was barely visited by superiors. Was only to be critiqued in a negative manner. Very clique-y atmosphere and you were treated poorly in you were not in the in-crowd. Tried to make workers do activities that were physically impossible and then blamed the workers for the negative outcomes. Breaks some days were not given to the employees in the kitchen!

Fun place to work but very hard to talk with management. Never really got scedualled and hard to get hours. But when i did have shifts they were fun and coworkers work together and it was enjoyable. had long shifts since working weddings. longest shift was 12 and a half hours ( started at 2PM and finished at 2:30AM) overall it was a fun and light environment but communication could be a lot better.

If you are someone interested in acting, I suggest applying as a scare actor at Saunders Farm. The employers are friendly and easy to work with, and do everything they can to accomodate actors' various schedules. The pay is also very good: well above minium wage for a part-time job.
