      Too many incompetent Managers

      Hospitality professional
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Decent pay, a lot of PTO, a lot of benefits and holiday gifts. Potluck was fun. Free food from management.

      Cons

      They promote the most self centered, ego driven, and boomer behavior managers that disgusts every new young employee onto the team. Passive racism, racist jokes, sexist jokes, overworking staff, and turnover is ridiculous. No one lasts more than 4 months here. There is one manager for every 2 employees. Imagine having 4 on your back everyday. Then have customers complain about the managers for not giving any personal communication. If you report to manager or HR about this, they just talk it over but give you a negative review or lower your pay.
