Vantaggi
Great employee benefits (free rooms,401k, healthcare). Caring employees at middle management level and below.
Svantaggi
CEO seems personable but very removed from reality of corporate operations. Making decisions that are borderline unethical at the executive level. My reputation was being smeared by high level executives to push through a controversial piece of technology; luckily this was clearly documented but they were in Senior VP positions so had to leave. Upon departure, was essentially kicked out - not even an exit interview. At the hotel level probably ok, but at the corporate level they are very much looking only for "yes" men and not interested in what's good or right at the regional or hotel level. You can see this in their product distribution, opening hotels with the wrong brand or making up crazy new ones. Company is very risk averse, lost opportunities to buy other companies - this shakes down the ladder. Overall the corporate or regional offices are not a great place to work for someone looking for an ethical, caring or creative place.
