Pros
- Employees and their families get discounted rates for hotels in the portfolio - Good health insurance options, partially subsidized by the company - Smart, capable coworkers (before many were laid off) - Huge brand recognition - Some positions are remote
Cons
- Not enough PTO! This was my biggest complaint. Basically no time off. - Most employees are on full-time hourly contracts instead of salaries, which makes it easy for the company to cut as many jobs as will make the board/stockholders happy at any given moment - Lots of restructuring and layoffs means little to no job security — could happen to you and your team at any time - Disorganized company goals from upper management - C-suite and execs get paid a ridiculous amount in comparison to folks at the bottom of the ladder (for example, the CEO's total compensation in 2023 was $55.5 million) - You'll find it increasingly hard to justify the company's layoffs and other cost-saving measures in light of the above
