Pros

Hilton name looks great on the CV, good benefits e.g. staff canteen, discount on booking rooms and restaurants (subject to availability), some very great and motivated team members, good support from HR if one wants to change location after a while

Cons

imbalance between what is expected and resources provided (e.g. understaffed), staff is often expected to make up for under staffing by staying longer hours, sometimes without compensation, some promotions clearly not deserved but if staff is senior no action is being taken, lots of unnecessary and impossible to fulfill red tape (e.g. training records), compensation is good for the industry but bad compared to others

Pros

Different services and softwares provided by Hilton are convenient to have access to.

Cons

The new PMS system, PEP, is awful. They got rid of F&B Distribution for night audit which means a lot less work for night auditors and way more work for accountants. PEP also doesn’t have the same functionalities as OnQ, the previous PMS. I have not heard any good thing about PEP after all these years. The team member travel discounts aren’t good anymore. They used to be flat rates across three tiers of hotels, but now they are extremely variable and can run very high. On top of that, hotels and resorts still charge team members for parking and service fees, so you still can’t afford to travel on the discount. That is, if you even find the team member rate available. Chances are, you’ll be working for a franchisee, not Hilton itself. They may be one of the world’s best companies to work for, but you probably won’t actually be working for them. California taxes and district fees felt mishandled by corporate.
