Pros
Hilton has 13 great brands and excellent talent at the manager - mid manager level, they just cant seem to get their senior leadership right and will always fall short compared to Marriott. I loved the work and my actual job their, but every manager I had in 4 years were complete disasters and totally unqualified.
Cons
The biggest con about Hilton is that no matter how smart or talented you are it really doesn't matter. Most people move up at Hilton by sleeping with executive leadership not because of good performance. It really is such a shame. Leadership is the #1 pitfall at Hilton and one of the main reasons why Marriott eat them for breakfast, always getting to market before Hilton with a new idea.
