Agile and self-aware

Pros

The leadership is smart, and not afraid of change. They are aware of what makes the team happy and keeps them ticking, and is not afraid to award them of that.

Cons

PTO policy is a little wonky. They still live by the old school mentality, of a bucket for sick days, a bucket for personal time, and PTO bucket, and you cant call upon different buckets if you are out of one, which is antiquated; time off should just be a bucket to spend however the employee see's fit.

Pros

Choice was a good place to work. Great people and collaborative environment. You get to travel to their Phoenix office, which is nice.

Cons

Commute in that area is tough.

We’re happy to hear you had an excellent experience at our Rockville office. The commute can indeed be tough in the DMV area, which is why we are located directly next to a DC metro station- and why we provide subsidized metro fare and free parking.

Choice is out of touch

Pros

Computer system is easy to use, travel perks are great, training is best is the business.

Cons

Choice themselves are totally out of touch with the front line employees and allow franchisees to treat their staff like slaves. I have been here for going into my 11th year and have worked my way up through the ranks, I have been yelled and screamed at and made to cry, for doing my job correctly, I am blamed for everything that goes wrong forget that the owners wont do things to attract guests. I work with an owner with a drug addiction, and have asked for help but Choice does nothing to support you.
