Svantaggi
The purpose of this posting was really to shed some light on the very poor pay levels out of the corporate office. Being located close to DC, the cost of living is high and HR has neglected to take into account a reasonable pay structure. Employee engagement scores were just released from a company-wide survey and Marriott dropped considerably in terms of employee satisfaction with compensation compared to similar years as well as compared to competitors. It's a shame because it truly is a remarkable company but with the low salary grades it stands to reason that people are considering work elsewhere. HR is expected to react to the drop in satisfaction but with a company this large and the bureaucracy involved with getting anything done (especially in HR), it is unlikely that anyone will see a positive change in their lifetime.
