Pros

There can be opportunities to advance and switch to different departments; good company culture.

Cons

Too many layers at corporate level. The efficiency wheel turns slowly. Low turnover, probably too low as people can get complacent & not open to new ideas. Traditional environment, not very open to alternative work arrangements such as telecommuting, etc.

Pros

Marriott offers great benefits include an associate discount at Marriott hotels (when available). Managers encourage you to train in other positions or take on new tasks to promote growth, and actively try to build your skills.

Cons

In an Accounting/Finance role, there are few options for promotion. There is typically only one progression: General Accountant, Assistant Director of Finance, Senior Assistant Director of Finance, Director of Finance. From there you may move between hotels in the same role for the rest of your career.

Pros

All associates are empowered with rights of the manager. Promotions often come laterally before vertically. Easy to try another brand within the Marriott family. Finest brand of hotels in the world. Discounts are incredible.

Cons

Some managers rely on the good ole boy system Training needs to be more intensive. Promotions seem to favor seniority rather than merit.
