Pros of working at Marriott International

Healthcare benefits, 401k, And hotel discounts

Cons of working at Marriott International

It depends which hotel You work. Tampa Renaissance was a very ill managed environment, the same issues were never resolved. Always had new assistant managers who were eager to change things for the better, but were quickly discouraged by upper management. This trickled to the service staff. Certain people did whatever they wanted, but were almost never reprimanded or dismissed for their unprofessional behavior. Breakfast shift was the hardest and the least lucrative. A lot of responsibility to set up breakfast buffet and keep it stocked, and serve ktables at the same time. It was extremely frustrating having to do this because the buffet should be a cook’s responsibility NOT the server who makes $5 hour.

Pros of working at Marriott International

I love the ability to interact and assist upwards of 1000 new guests each day. I have also had the opportunity to build strong relationships with hundreds of our repeat guests. Finally, I enjoy how the entire staff works as one large team. Members of our sales team often assist our Housekeeping/Front Desk Teams on busy days, just as our Rooms Division often helps our Events Team when needed.

Cons of working at Marriott International

I love everything about the hotel, although I often work so many different shifts per week (for example: three mornings and two evenings).

Marriott International benefits

We have excellent health insurance and I enjoy the travel discounts.

Our limited time on this Earth is the real money! As long as I’m happy at home, on vacation, spare time, and most of all at work… that’s joy
