Multi-day shifts and weekly pay in Park Worker

Every level in the Park Worker career uses a single multi-day shift per week. From level 1 to level 5, your shift starts on Friday at 16:00 and lasts for 44 hours. Starting at level 6, your shift begins on Thursday at 16:00 and lasts for 68 hours.

Your pay grows steadily as you gain levels and work longer shifts. A level 1 Cabin Cleaner earns 10 Simoleons per hour, which gives you 440 Simoleons per week. By level 5, a Group Counselor earns 55 Simoleons per hour for 2,420 Simoleons per week.

The longer 68-hour schedule at level 6 increases your weekly income to 4,828 Simoleons. At level 7, an Event Coordinator makes 89 Simoleons per hour and brings home 6,052 Simoleons each week. You also earn 0.5 paid days off for each day worked.

Comparing the Park Ranger and Park Counselor branches

When you reach level 8, you must pick between the Park Ranger branch and the Park Counselor branch. Both paths keep the same Thursday shift at 16:00 that runs for 68 hours per week. Because the hours are identical, your choice comes down to the hourly pay.

The Park Counselor branch pays more money at every single level. You start at level 8 earning 132 Simoleons per hour, or 8,976 Simoleons per week. At level 10, a Head Counselor earns 180 Simoleons per hour, which totals 12,240 Simoleons per week.

The Park Ranger branch pays slightly less from start to finish. An Assistant Park Ranger at level 8 makes 106 Simoleons per hour, totaling 7,208 Simoleons per week. At level 10, a Chief Ranger earns 165 Simoleons per hour for a weekly total of 11,220 Simoleons.

Early promotion rules and Park Worker career cheats

When your work performance is close to the promotion line, you have a 1% base chance for an early promotion. Having the Entrepreneurial trait multiplies this chance by 30. Having the Growth Mindset moodlet multiplies the chance by 5.

If your performance drops to the demotion line at the end of work, there is a 100% chance of demotion. The Professional Slacker trait multiplies this demotion chance by 0, which prevents demotions. Also, if your Sim quits, the level they rejoin at drops by one every 2 days.

You can use cheats in Live mode to change your career level right away. Open the cheat console with Ctrl + Shift + C on PC or Cmd + Shift + C on Mac. Type testingcheats true, then enter careers.promote ParkWorker to move up one level, or careers.add_career ParkWorker to join the job.
