Business outlook
Pros
PTO, Benefits, and Room Rate Discounts are nice. The culture is centered on treating associates well so that they will in turn treat the guest well. There are numerous ways to grow your career if you are able to learn new skills and adapt to changes.
Cons
The corporate work environment (HQ) does not always follow the same ideals as the hotel (Field) environment of treating associates well. By this I mean that the customer is not in view and the corporate structure can be disconnected from the business of hospitality. As with most companies post recession Marriott is trying to do more with less and many corporate workers are overwhelmed and can not keep pace with work demands.
