      I was at Holiday Inn Express for over a year and I started out at $7.47 and ended at $7.69, horrible and no benefits.

      Front desk agent

      Pros

      I guess it gave me work history to put on my resume. There are a lot of companies who like to see previous hospitality work experience.

      Cons

      They do not take care of there employee's. I was there for over a year and did not get any benefits! I started out in May 2012 getting paid $7.47 and ended in August getting paid $7.69, terrible! Overall it was not a good experience, especially since I was there for over a year. I did not get any promotions and only a .22 cent pay increase total.

      It all depends on ownership

      Night auditor
      Recommend

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      If the owners treat the property as a long term investment and are willing to fill the role of housekeeper or night auditor themselves if need be, it can be a decent place to work with actual career mobility.

      Cons

      Many owners are absentee landlords, leading to a culture of short term gains and borderline abusive management. It seems common of many GMs and owners to think less of the staff for being under their employ. The turnover rate is one of the highest in the service industry, with many franchises wanting to hire "zombie" employees with no individual desire to increase revenue, simply because of a desire to stay at minimum wage.

      Not a good place for a career

      Night auditor/front desk agent
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      None I can think of off the top of my head

      Cons

      Low pay, .25 cent raises, little upward mobility, lack of employee incentives, all feedback is negative with little positive feedback, a nightmare of an organization! The last 3 weeks the front desk agents haven't even had A/C...I'am looking at the thermostat right now and it reads 88 degrees
