Pros

It is good to meet people from different places and learn about different companies that they work for. It's also good when you have guest who are nice and talk to you during your shift. Employee discounts are very helpful when traveling because it helps to save a lot of money.

Cons

There is really nothing to earn while working. It's hard to get a raise, you do not earn paid time off, and you do not get any benefits. In order to book a room under your employee discount, you have to have your manager send you a link through e-mail, and sometimes they act like you're being bothersome when you ask. At my hotel, there is so much negativity and it an be a very hostile environment. Whereas it used to be a fun place to work, everyone seems to stressed and unhappy for a low paying job. There isn't a lot of praise, although guest write nice reviews online, however, when there is one simple complaint they come down very hard on us making us feel unappreciated.

Pros

The people are great. The facility is very nice.

Cons

Fear of losing your job every day if you make one boss angry or do not do her bidding. Training was abysmal. Team leads were not qualified to answer half of the questions. Team leads would work from home, but were unreachable in a crisis. Team supervisors hated the manager and the fighting was obvious.
