Cedar Point’s Vice President of Human Resources, Michelle Geiman, and Six Flags Regional Vice President, Jason McClure, have made a regrettable and misguided decision to lay off over 150 full-time employees. Many of these dedicated individuals have devoted over 30 years to the park. The affected employees have been offered options for severance, part-time roles, or resignation. While the park continues to display a “Now Hiring” sign at their Hiring and Training Center and lists open positions on their website, it’s clear that these valued associates are being let go due to corporate greed.
This troubling trend is not confined to Cedar Point; it is part of a broader pattern affecting parks nationwide, especially those that have merged with Six Flags. This situation demands national attention, as it reflects the alarming reality that loyal employees are being sacrificed to enhance shareholder bonuses. The commitments made by the CEO to shareholders during the merger should never come at the cost of the hardworking individuals who have been instrumental in the park’s success. It’s time to prioritize the employees who contribute to the company’s achievements and ensure they are treated with the respect and dignity they deserve.
First off, it’s not the middle of the operating season, most regional parks have JUST gone to daily operations this past week, second, you don’t need a president at every park in a 42 park chain, and that’s with 2 already slated to close too, how about you take your high and mighty Disney selves and stick to your own parks, sorry not every park in the country can stay open 365 days a year while charging $150 to get into the gates
