Pros

Unlike other hotel companies Hyatt genuinely takes care of their associates. Credibility counts, GMs and VPs have worked their way up in the organization and the average tenure of top brass is 15+ years. Every hotel you work at have associates who have been there for 10-20-30 years............ speaks volumes about a company's culture of respect and care.

Cons

It's not a 9 to 5 job, not for the folks who are not passionate about 'hospitality'.........it's a way of life - hard work, orchestrated group effort yet rewarding.

Pros

Hyatt is an industry leader. It is definitely a great place to start a career. At my location the turnover rate was very low, and generally meant that the person leaving and being replaced had been moved to a new job within the hotel or was promoted outside of the hotel.

Cons

Hyatt is a management company. Every hotel is independently owned, so your experience can vary widely. Luckily, my hotel has a top-notch staff. However, some people who transferred from other hotels have less than rave reviews about the staff from where they came.

Pros

Hyatt has a lot of opportunity for growth if you are willing to relocate and you can move up rather quickly as Hyatt has a lot of mid level managment. If you like to travel you can't beat th travel perks but you also have to be willing to sacrifice your life if it doesn't fit into Hyatt's plan.

Cons

Pay is at the low end of the pay scale and not much emphasis is put on recognition. Too much focus on a job done poorly than on a job well done. Hyatt lacks an understanding of a work life balance and does not encourage such a life for their line level employees. There is a strong disconnect between upper management and line employees.
