Pros

Benefits: healthcare, free/discounted hotel rooms. OT and work performance incentive: you earn points and smiles which you can buy PTO hours, gifts cards and lunch vouchers with. Friendly work environment. There's lots of opportunities to move within the company.

Cons

Maximum raise you can receive after a good annual performance evaluation is 0.50. It is a must that you love customer service to do this type of work because the job does not pay you enough to listen to guests complain (some are valid and some are from guests who just take advantage of the system to get a free room) all day long. it's almost impossible to get PTO/s approved during holidays and summer months not unless you apply months in advance to get an approval.

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.
