Pros

Nice and supportive colleagues Overall healthy culture

Cons

Was unfortunately working with an emotionally unstable management. Panics at most situations and emotionally influences the team. Says one thing but does another. When a team member informs that they will be 5 mins late for a meeting due to operational needs or other unforeseen circumstances, management says that their time is not respected. Management has been late for meetings multiple times without informing in advance, why is it okay when they do it? Unforgiving, unempathetic. Workload is ridiculous, when you share with management that you are unable to cope and propose to hire an additional headcount (be it fulltime or parttime) to help ease the load, management rejects without hesitation or offering to help find an alternative or solution. Only word of advice given was ‘do not be overwhelmed.’ Management is incompetent and not able to manage emotions professionally. Most of the time, things are taken personally and favoritism is shown. Worst experience in my entire career, wasted a year of my life here.

Pros

So much downtime to whatever you want. Especially as a college student, I could do all my homework at work, and since I workout and play basketball, I could literally exercise there too. I was playing games on my laptop, switch, xbox, all at work because it was so chill and such an easy job.

Cons

Pay is not that good because you're not doing much work. Not really opportunity for growth unless you move to a different and nicer hotel.

Pros

Good benefits Flexibility Decent pay

Cons

Terrible management Never any recognition In 3 years never once had a performance review Had to basically beg for a raise Focus only on the mistakes you make Very regularly and frequently use favoritism Zero support from management Management has zero empathy for employees Frequently with zero notice reduces hours and when you voice your concerns they just tell you to deal with it.
