Pros

Flexible schedule, guest interactions, entry level, no education, background checks, or drug tests. So, it's ideal for second chance employees.

Cons

No opportunity to grow. The pay is just above min.wage, the hotel is old needs updated but they won't put any money into it. No benefits, and they don't care about how clean the rooms are just nasty.

Pros

The pros are I really enjoyed my job and the people I worked with. I still talk to all of them.

Cons

I worked there for a year but found limited opportunities for growth or fair compensation. When additional responsibilities such as room cleaning were added to my role, I requested a modest raise, which was declined despite already being paid below the standard rate for receptionists.
