The Four Seasons overall vision is great, but the reality for the staff is another story,,,
Pros
1 - Fantastic vision & commitment to push employees to always improve and get better 2 - Strong global reputation builds value to your resume 3 - Complimentary hotel our Seasons Hotels & Resorts all over the world
Cons
1 - Extremely slow pace for moving up; very limted opportunities for promotions 2 - Very competitive work environment especially with Division Heads (the directors) who do whatever it takes to please the Regional Vice Presidents and Corporate Office Officials as a way to move up 3 - Managers are expected to work very hard with very limited staffing and resources while pretending that this is okay 4 - Four Seasons does not own the hotels and resorts. They are just the management company. The real owners are outside investors who are stricly focused on profitability. 5 - Poor compensation package - very low salary for assistant managers and department heads 6 - Not a good fit for work life balance for students and families. You will be asked to work on weekends, holidays and fluctuating days off 90% of the time.
