Pros

They have an SOP for everything and really have figured out the best way to do most things. You will not need to re-invent the wheel.

Cons

Sometimes there can be a lot of politics.

Pros

Company has a great reputation, lots of different areas you can move around in if you are not satisfied where you are.

Cons

At the location I was at it was very hectic and disorganized work environment. Also slightly hostile at certain times. Very long shifts with a lot of walking. Outfits are long sleeve dark blue polyester with black pants and long black aprons - and we had to wait tables outside - extremely uncomfortable in the humidity and heat.

Pros

1. Interactions with "guests/group leaders". It's nice to meet everyone from different parts of the country and world. Though same faces are nice, different ones are, as well.

Cons

2. Some, not all, "Diamond Hilton Honors" members think they walk on water. Yes, I know they spend lots of money to stay in our hotels, but there's a line between their ego and treating the clerks like human beings.
