Pros

Guaranteed hours, shift hours are specific (not random). lots of downtime (great for college students needing to study), family like atmosphere, gives great resume experience to use for future jobs, meet interesting people

Cons

Work most weekends, only two people hired per shift, not very flexible, rude customers trying to get a free stay, little starting pay, stressed out management due to upper management, secret shoppers every month, little to no help during busy rushes, too much to calmly handle for one person alone, little pay, terrible training program, more worried about profit than its employees, no scheduled breaks (only take a break if you have time)

Pros

Different services and softwares provided by Hilton are convenient to have access to.

Cons

The new PMS system, PEP, is awful. They got rid of F&B Distribution for night audit which means a lot less work for night auditors and way more work for accountants. PEP also doesn’t have the same functionalities as OnQ, the previous PMS. I have not heard any good thing about PEP after all these years. The team member travel discounts aren’t good anymore. They used to be flat rates across three tiers of hotels, but now they are extremely variable and can run very high. On top of that, hotels and resorts still charge team members for parking and service fees, so you still can’t afford to travel on the discount. That is, if you even find the team member rate available. Chances are, you’ll be working for a franchisee, not Hilton itself. They may be one of the world’s best companies to work for, but you probably won’t actually be working for them. California taxes and district fees felt mishandled by corporate.
