Pros

Marriott was a company founded on an understanding of taking care of it's people so they would take care the customers. For many decades that was the case and may still be the case in some areas, but the tides have been changing since J.W. Marriott Jr. stepped down as CEO.

Cons

A lot of senior leadership have risen to their positions based on tenure at the company, not necessarily based on expertise in their fields. This lack of expertise of people in powerful positions can and has lead to poor judgement and decisions on strategic directions, which in turn can and will have business ramifications far into the future.

Pros

Great team environment with opportunities to learn hotel operations. The work is generally independent, management trusts employees to handle responsibilities, and the employee travel discounts are an excellent benefit.

Cons

Overnight shifts can be challenging, staffing can occasionally be limited, and balancing guest service with audit responsibilities during busy nights can become stressful.
