Pros

Family atmosphere, supervisor very friendly and understanding, good benefits. Flexible schedule is great.

Cons

No pay raise or very little, was making $11. per hour after being there 5 years! Last raise was .30 cents. After wage and 401K freeze not worth staying. Half of my paycheck went to pay for health insurance. I can't imagine working for so little and having to pay for cooking school.

Pros

Different services and softwares provided by Hilton are convenient to have access to.

Cons

The new PMS system, PEP, is awful. They got rid of F&B Distribution for night audit which means a lot less work for night auditors and way more work for accountants. PEP also doesn’t have the same functionalities as OnQ, the previous PMS. I have not heard any good thing about PEP after all these years. The team member travel discounts aren’t good anymore. They used to be flat rates across three tiers of hotels, but now they are extremely variable and can run very high. On top of that, hotels and resorts still charge team members for parking and service fees, so you still can’t afford to travel on the discount. That is, if you even find the team member rate available. Chances are, you’ll be working for a franchisee, not Hilton itself. They may be one of the world’s best companies to work for, but you probably won’t actually be working for them. California taxes and district fees felt mishandled by corporate.
