      They are too important to allow me to go to school

      Jul. 6, 2021 - Night Auditor/Front Desk Agent in Edmonton, AB
      Recommend
      CEO Approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Any employee (not management, will get there later) very friendly. Despite the obstacles they still enjoy the job. They did give food.

      Cons

      No ability to accommodate staff, even with plenty of positions available. I started a school class investing close to $40k. The management expected me to give this up upon restarting my shifts. Despite giving them 3 months notice that I needed to go part time, they chose to not deal with this until the last min. Because I was nights I was looking at a 4 hour sleep per shift. This did not concern them. The mental health of the staff is the least of their concerns. If you do accept the offer please know intimidation is the preferred method of training. “Do as I say, not as I do” is defiantly the catch phrase.

      Pros

      The only pro was the wage that i was started at.

      Cons

      The managers there are absolutely brutal. No experience, no education, no sense of to help the rest of the staff. They were very rude and always talked down to employees. They have no idea how to run a hotel. It was a very uncomfortable environment, not enjoyable at all.
