Pros

Beats the unemployment line - but just barely

Cons

Employees are treated like garbage - its true. The CEO and HR seem to pride themselves on cutting costs at the employees expense, creating poor morale, and daring anyone to speak up about it. Fact - in the three years I've been with BW I have made less money every year due to benefits being cut, health premiums going way up, and a yearly "raise" that equates to less than CPI. It's true what has been said in a previous review that the executive enjoy a Cadillac health plan while continuing to screw their employees on benefits. Their excuse is Obamacare as if we're too stupid to understand the law or its implications. SHAME ON BEST WESTERN. Fact - any 5 star review on this site has been put their by BWs HR staff. If you are truly interested in considering BW as a place to work I strongly suggest you reach out to a current or former employee for the truth.

Pros

Corporate employees generally care about their role in the overall success of the individual hotels they serve as well as the guests and the overall reputation of the company

Cons

Corporate restructuring has changed the level and quality of corporate support available to successful hotels due to much focus on underperforming locations which further erodes the quality and reputation of the brand
