Pros

Good Pay. You get to meet a lot of people and it’s stable job. The food is good for employees when they take breaks.

Cons

Poor management, favoritism and everybody looks out for themselves even though they talk about teamwork. They ask for help it’s ok but when you really need help they’re nowhere to be found and say they can’t help you so you’re there after hours picking up rooms others have dropped before their shift ended.

overworked and under appreciated, the Hilton family is no longer associated with the company (the focus is revenue not hospitality), unqualified directors, if its not their idea its not going to happen
