WORST corporate people!

Pros

None none none none none

Cons

Absolutely the WORST people in corporate office. They are arrogant and conceited, and promote a self important culture. They don’t support the hotels. It’s ALL about them, when it should be about the actual paying guests! An example- C-suite level of Human Resources came to property on vacation and wrote a scathing review (specifically about hourly employees who make minimum wage) all because she wasn’t “recognized “ 1) she wasn’t the only guest 2)we are short staffed and everyone is burnt out because they are cheap and won’t let us hire 3) the picture she sent prior to arrival was over a decade old so she looked NOTHING like the picture we had!! As a c-suite in HR she should be an ADVOCATE for employees not belittle them because her ego wasn’t stroked. That in a nutshell is the culture from the CEO down. C-suite Operation individuals act the same way when they are in property.

Pros

I cant even write a good review about their health insurance, it is terrible.

Cons

As we are in Hawaii, company is very mainland. As a previous executive manager, not even our voices of ideas or concerns were listened too. Dismissed too many times. This company is a real estate investment company, they know nothing of hotels and hospitality culture. As you can see in their newest culture roll out to all employees in the brand. Absolutely pathetic.

Pros

Share some of the best reasons to work for highgate is that you know how a really bad company operates. Get paid on time.

Cons

Sneaky, will not disclose full truth of solvency of company. Blind side you in thinking you are with them, then will tell you to either take this position, or take your chances. Will lie to you in your face. Dishonest with customers, clients!! It's really a favoritism company. Their (Highgate) only concern is pulling the wool over their investors or who they are managing the asset for. All you need to do is research their turn over rate!! It's awful. No retention. That is proof enough.
