Pros

The benefits, the Hyatt name, my co-workers- the hotel looks nice...that's all I can think of!

Cons

OVERWORKED, UNDERPAID, UNDERSTAFFED- we get paid 10.oo to start and we do EVERYTHING in the hotel except the housekeeping-keep in mind we have a kitchen so the front desk staff does all the regular front desk work AND all the cooking/ cleaning/meetings (catering them and setting up/tearing down/ and we set up the breakfast and tear down breakfast we serve Starbucks specialty coffees and drinks...wine and beer..it goes on and on...for $10 measly dollars an hour- minimum wage is almost that!!!! I was making this much money in HIGH SCHOOL!!!!! I can buy 2 gallons of gas for working 2 hours!!! We are tired and management does not care.

Pros

Fair pay, decent PTO, can be a very flexible work environment if you have a caring leader. Hospitality is a fun industry that tends to attract interesting people--ability to travel and work with diverse cultures is great.

Cons

Constant reorganization/restructuring post-COVID, and growth that outpaced scalable infrastructure. Some long-time employees very set in their ways, can be hard to make meaningful impacts on ways of working even when the org has changed on paper.
