Pros

It's a great company to learn from before you move on. They have high turn over so you can quickly move up the ranks if you work hard. They hire fun and unique people, so you quickly make friends... GM's are easily accessible most of the time and truly care about their employees.

Cons

Low salary, low commision compared to other hotels. The only raise you get is cost of living. Benefits for catering employees is unfair. No sick days, no holiday pay, and almost unaffordable medical coverage. There is no consistency between properties, proper training is not provided. No work life balance in catering department. Expected to work every weekend. There is a disconnect between each department.

Pros

Good tips. Great scheduling. Easy work.

Cons

The managers aren't all that great. Some play favorites with the servers they want to hook up with. Many have big egos as they love to flex what little power they have in life over the servers.
