Great overall company, but localized management is very corrupt

Guest services manager

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Great benefits, very reputable brand, solid customer base, good property management system and helpful IT support staff, hotels are in very busy locations

Cons

Many overseas locations (my example being in China) are run completely by locals, from upper management all the way down. There needs to be better monitoring of these locations by the regional headquarters, as most of the Chinese management do not follow proper procedures or protocols of Hilton Worldwide.

Pros

- Looks good on your CV

Cons

- Lazy and imcompetent managers (up to head of department level). - HR promotes suck ups who have ticked boxes rather than experienced and capable staff. - Long shifts, poor work/life balance - Low pay and tips that dont find their way to your payslip. - Management do not care about their staff, only the numbers and are very lazy. - Management cant seem to write a rota more than one day in advance (is available on Thursday, starts the next day) which makes planning the rest of your life next to impossible.
