A great hospitality company to work for

Food & beverage manager

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

The integrity of the company comes from the top, the Jacobs family, down. Delaware North Companies core values are evident in their programs, from GuestPath, GreenPath, sustainable resources and their commitment to education and medical research. Managers have almost unlimited opportunities to grow through DNC's Virtual University and learn on the job by mandatory programs and certifications relavent to food and beverage management. Total compensation, including benefits, is good.

Cons

Managers are expected to work long hours, however that is par for the course in the food and beverage industry. DNC's expectations of their managers are very demanding, but it is worth it with the growth opportunities.

Still learning.

Business Outlook

Pros

New experience and learning new skills.

Cons

Training needs to be more structured. People should not be able to have side bar conversations that distract from the speaker. Also, information that is intended for universal dissemination to the whole group is often only disseminationated to one or few. For example, if a question is asked by a participant then the question should be repeated for all to know what the question was, before answering. I can imagine someone saying I answered that question in training, but not realizing everyone didn't hear or know what they were talking about. I am also concern that some of the training classes are too large.
