BROOMFIELD, Colo., Nov. 20,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Vail Resorts (NYSE: MTN) was
recognized by Newsweek as one of America's Most Admired
Workplaces of 2025. The Newsweek recognition is based on an
independent survey of more than 250,000 U.S. employees and analysis
of over 1.5 million collected company reviews. The ranking
highlights companies that "employees respect and job searchers want
to work for," based on inspirational and aspirational factors
including culture and career opportunities.
"This recognition belongs to our 55,000 passionate and talented
team members," said Vail Resorts Chief Executive Officer
Kirsten Lynch. "Our company mission
is to create the Experience of a Lifetime for our employees,
so they, in turn, can create the Experience of a Lifetime
for our guests. Whether they stay for a season, or a career,
investing in our people is at the core of that mission, ensuring we
are building leaders in each of our team members and creating a
differentiated guest experience."
Vail Resorts is guided by its core values, including Serve
Others, Be Safe, and Do Good. In addition to
recent investments in wages and benefits, other company initiatives
informed by these values include:
- Serve Others: Developing service-based
leaders at every level, including through continued investments in
Epic Service, the company's frontline talent development
program.
- Be Safe: Focusing on both employees'
physical safety and mental health. Recently, the
company expanded free therapy for employees, their dependents,
and roommates from six sessions per year to six sessions per
season, meaning team members working year-round or multiple seasons
now have access to 12 free mental health sessions per year.
- Do Good: Investing in industry
leading sustainability efforts to protect the environment,
providing support in mountain communities for issues like
affordable housing, supporting employees with hardship relief
grants and scholarships, and inspiring the next generation of
skiers and snowboarders through inclusive access programs.
In addition to being named one of "America's Most Admired
Workplaces," Newsweek also recognized Vail Resorts as one of
"America's Most Trustworthy Companies" in 2024 and 2023. Other
