The Back Bay Hotel - Anonymous employee Doyle Collection Employee Review

I really enjoy all the activities and festivities the do for employees from theme celebrations, ice cream trucks and children’s party for the employees children. Besides that the hotel has had many accolades and good atmosphere and it’s feels like everyone is like minded. Good benefits, close to metro and other perks are very nice.

Management can sometimes not be at the same channel and there are some miscommunication issues, some benefits could be better like hybrid schedules and complementary hotel stays. Lockers can be improved.

Some very nice old school full service perks - breakfast and lunch and dry cleaning, etc.

The turnover rate is extremely high, even for the hospitality industry. The main reason seems to be that the working environment is not pleasant or supportive. Management seems very brittle and not happy. It is never a happy or pleasant place to be. The physical location of the office was in a basement, no light, cold and damp.
