Front desk manager

Business Outlook

Pros

Engaging culture. If you're a people person than opportunities are aplenty to engage, interact and sometimes mean unique individuals from all over the world. My particular property is franchised and so thus pay isn't something you're going to survive off of nor are there any benefits, I'm sure this can vary from property-to-property.

Cons

As stated, the pay isn't phenomenal. This is somewhat expected as this is a service sector position but just as well there aren't benefits of any kind, even with regards to full-time employment.
