Pros

Decent pay if you are a manger. Since each Four Seasons is its own entity with its own benefits packages, please note that this is only for FS Minneapolis. We get a good number of holidays and vacation days. Full time members get free healthcare. 80 Sick time Meet a lot of people Travel discount stays at other FS Free employee lunch

Cons

Not liked/kissing butt= Not employed anymore Not a manager? You do not get the huge yearly bonus Not a manger? No quarterly manager monthly toasts Not all managers are compensated equally (Ex. A manager in a smaller department may make around 85K including the bonus but directors of a bigger departments may make around 88K including bonus) Manager of certain departments like rooms and front desk may be called in on weekends while more corporate sides are usually within business hours Some hourly employees may be severely underpaid and assistant directors and directors. Some assistant directors' salaries compared to their director may say make 50k less. MUST WEAR FAKE FACE AT ALL TIMES. Never know who is there to climb the ladder and when HR will call you in. The retaliation here is unbelievable. Multiple demotions for people speaking up. Also multiple promotions between departments for those liked. A lesson that I have learned here is to zip it and say yes with a smile. If you are good at pleasing others and complimenting others on every decision, you will probably be able to rise through the ranks here easily. If you are kind spirited and do not have a mask, you will need to only say positive things and DO NOT question anything. You may also do well here is you have a mellow personality and do not care about the corporates politics taking place around you. If you come here to clock in and clock out for a pay check, then you will be tolerated.

Pros

The banquets department is run incredibly well. Our director is extremely knowledgable and approachable. The back of the house (and overall hotel) is super clean, which makes doing your job smoother. Even as an on-call employee, your input on daily operations is valued, and feedback is genuinely appreciated. The GM even takes time out of his schedule to meet with us, which speaks to their commitment to continuous improvement. There’s definitely a hierarchy, but at the very least, leadership is not pretentious. Overall, Four Seasons cares about its employees and treats us with the same level of respect as guests. I definitely recommend working in this department.

Cons

Four Seasons is not as busy as other hotels in the city so you won't have many shifts.

Pros

Travel benefits Free health insurance

Cons

Underpaid, working for 3 properties. Definitely no work life balance. Tenured employees are not valued, they would hire NEW employees for remote only. Unable to be remote if you have been there for awhile, always get denied even if you have shown yourself with metrics and training new people. Leadership only cares about operations they only want good things to be heard, no negative things are said, no improvement. Everyone there always say something on what to improve on but nothing has happened. They always say that our department has made MILLIONS for bookings but our pay is low even with commissions with crazy schedules. Also, same salary with new hires. Alot of former employees in this reservations department leaves all the time. They would place you in different schedules even force you work overnight. Also they only release schedules a week before or 3 days before. Because they said “if there are no call outs, then we can release the schedule 2 weeks or a month before” All I can say is save yourself
