Pros

Most of my coworkers are great people and enjoyable to work with.

Cons

Working at this company has been a challenging experience due to several ongoing issues that management has yet to address. 1. Upper Management and Ownership: The primary focus of upper management and the owners appears to be cutting costs rather than investing in their employees or improving operations. Decisions are often made with profit as the only consideration, with little to no regard for the well-being or morale of the staff. 2. Compensation and Workload: Employees are expected to take on heavy workloads for minimum pay. There’s little effort to balance responsibilities fairly or compensate staff adequately for the amount of work required. This leads to burnout and high turnover rates. 3. Lack of Appreciation and Respect: There’s virtually no recognition for hard work or dedication. Employees’ efforts often go unnoticed, and communication from management tends to be dismissive or disrespectful. This lack of appreciation creates a toxic environment where people feel undervalued and replaceable. 4. Declining Morale: Morale has steadily declined due to poor management practices, lack of support, and the overall negative atmosphere. Many employees have expressed frustration and exhaustion, and few feel motivated to continue long-term. 5. Hygiene and Workplace Standards: Basic standards of personal hygiene and cleanliness are often ignored, which makes the work environment uncomfortable and unprofessional. This lack of care further reflects the company’s disregard for employee well-being. 6. Mental Strain: It has become mentally draining to come into work each day. The combination of low morale, lack of appreciation, and poor management practices makes the environment emotionally exhausting and unsustainable for many employees. Final Thoughts: This workplace has potential, but it desperately needs a leadership overhaul and a renewed focus on employee respect, fair pay, and a clean, healthy environment. Until then, it’s difficult to recommend this company to anyone seeking a positive or sustainable work experience.

Pros

Great staff and lowermanagement. Last general manager was unfriendly and not very helpful.

Cons

I was supposed to get long tenure status for lifetime friends of family with my veteran status. Worked at Hilton 9+ years. Supposed to get 1 year for my veteran status (according to the handbook at that time) which would make 10 years. HR supposedly turned in application in August 2024. I even followed up and was told they were working it. It's been almost 2 years and haven't heard anything yet. Very disappointed and dissatisfied. Guess I won't be staying at Hilton Hotels.
