Pros

a pretty physical environment because it is a historic hotel

Cons

High turnover throughout entire hotel. Also, working for managers who do not know what they are doing. as if this is their first rodeo, and in a lot of their cases, it actually is because Hyatt promotes inexperienced employees to be managers who dont know what they are doing and who ending up failing. Really juvenile atmosphere. Bad managers, an even worse leadership team who are supposed to be a source of inspiration, but who are actually very disappointing because they are narrow minded and cannot think outside themselves long enough to have a vision.

W, as the General Manager of The Driskill, I wish to thank you for taking time to provide feedback. I take your comments as a priority. As a leader at The Driskill, I am sorry that your experiences with our hotel have left you frustrated. At Hyatt, we strive hard to make our environments enjoyable for all of our associates and we clearly did not fulfill this duty for you. Please know I welcome the opportunity to speak with you directly, or as an alternative, I would encourage you to speak with our Director of Human Resources, Kate, specifically about your concerns. We will make ourselves available to you in every way should you so choose. Scott Mason, GM

Pros

Great work environment, team was helpful and really nice, workload wasn’t overwhelming

Cons

Didn’t feel super included on the team as a contractor, expectations were consistently unclear, they tell you it’s temp to perm, but could be years before a permanent role is available
