      Pros

      The healthcare benefits provided by Kimpton were great. Their corporate offices are based in California so the insurance offered had California benefits. Love the culture and with the majority of the hotels being small, you had a lot of opportunity for growth.

      Cons

      High-stress during peak seasons. Systems were outdated during my time of employment. It was difficult to get time off since they really need you during the busy season.

      We hear you, hospitality can be pretty stressful at times. So glad to hear you enjoyed our culture and benefits. Thanks for sharing!

        Pros

        The benefits they offer are great for a restaurant job. The hotels are pretty nice and the hotel management was great.

        Cons

        Restaurant management was regularly dishonest and erratic during my employment. They also work you into the ground, which is great for overtime but gets old quickly.

            I worked at the Hotel Monaco and we had just gone through a management change when I started, we were all way overworked and not making enough. Never fun to be forced to work doubles.

              Compensation. Hospitality took a big hit after covid-19. The industry is not the same.

                Pros

                company and upper management definitely care about health & happiness. great benefits for yourself and spouse. competitive salary and bonus structures. Great hotel discounts. 401k benefits.

                Cons

                The company empowers non management employees and it can serve as a double edged sword. Some of the employees believe empowerment means they are now managers.

                  Pros

                  It costs only $50 to stay at a 5-star hotel that would have cost you well over $300 a night at a normal rate. People at work is generally friendly and courteous.

                  Cons

                  Promotion path is vague at best. There is no guideline or communication on how to get promoted. If you look at the organization structure, you will see there are managers and directors with no direct reports or a manager could be reporting to a VP. So, you can't get a sense of how someone get promoted or how a position is filled. Benefits are not great but sufficient.
