Company has lost focus

Hotel manager

Business Outlook

Pros

Strong brands and a lot of cohesion throughout the company. There is a lot of pride in the name and the hotels are very nice.

Cons

This compnay seems to have lost focus after they were bought by Blackstone. The layoffs and service cuts are distressing. Staff is not supportive. The brands linger with a lot of technology and no knowledge of how to use it.

Pros

It was the spot light within the Hilton company. The hotel was only opened little over one year ago. Very beautiful in design.

Cons

Lack of respect for its team members and lack of leadership development from the senior management. The lack of participation from the sernior management to the operation leading the management to make decisions that are not practical.

Low salaries, long hours of work if necessary. They treat housekeeping staff especially poorly like slaves.

Pros

Flexible hours, which suits my academic studies. Hilton hires employees from various ethnic backgrounds. Hilton staff rate available for employees in Hilton hotels all over the world.

Cons

Low salaries, long hours of work if necessary. They treat housekeeping staff especially poorly, which resembles to modern day slavery. They do not give financial incentives to the majority of employees when hotel makes profit above target. Too much company politics, not always the people promoted who deserves.
