Pros

Having lunch provided, that's it. For a big company no other perks.

Cons

The management have no idea what they are doing, no policies or procedures are followed. Managers stick together, where employees have no chance of being treated fairly. Bullying, harassment, sexist and racism goes on freely within the hotel. This is from the top.

Pros

Great Potential if Upper Management is open to new ideas

Cons

Quit the backstabbing, the gossip and favoritism. Spend more time learning and doing your job and less time trying to figure out how to sabotage employees who you personally do no care for. I have seen some incredible employees get fired, or forced to leave only because upper management did not like them on a personal level.

Seemingly Luxury

Pros

There are many possibilities for luxury training, diversity training and Front Office Operational training. Employees who work in Front Office operations will be provided uniforms [size and condition may not aways be in suitable condition]. One meal is provided for, albeit if you have any dietary restrictions you should bring your own food. Certain members in management are approachable and may even offer to mentor you.

Cons

Front Office: litigious application of employee handbook rules. Certain management personnel seem friendly enough, but they are constantly seeking new ways to calmly extract information from you to later use against you. Concierge: you may be expected to perform duties of Front Office, thus blurring the line or responsibility and function. Don't expect much advancement in incorporating technology into the guest experience. Everything rests on Medallia, Sofitel's metric for guest satisfaction. And when a guest is dissatisfied, but doesn't explain why? Well, it will naturally be your fault, non? Also, be cautious when dealing with HR: they may attempt to detain you placing you under duress if you are in the process of termination or a forced resignation. Avoid signing anything unless you are fully aware of the implications. Beware!
