I'm looking for a new role in hospitality and your review kinda makes me wish that Holiday Inn still existed! Were the pay and benefits really as good as you say?

Coeur D'Alene, ID - August 13, 2024
I loved working here at Holiday Inn Express And Suits and I honestly regret ever leaving! Everyone always worked hard at there jobs and helped others when needed. Management was great and would go above and beyond to show employees that they were appreciated and cared about, also they did the same with guests which was amazing to me! This was truly the best place I have ever worked for and truly regret my decision to leave because I was moving out of state!
Pros and Cons
When I worked here we had great staff and amazing mangment and they always went above and beyond
Personally i dont think there was any cons when ai worked here everyone worked together as a team

I never ran out of a job so quickly in my life they are rude they are like an insestuious family that you know loves each other but they also all hate each other. When i tell you my manager would literally just stand in front of me just thinking of mean things to say and then just say them for no reason like totally made no sense. and when i tell you the manager of the hotel literally walked up to me and instead of saying excuse me she stood there until i moved for another reason it was the creepiest thing in the world
Pros and Cons
discount if full time

I got hired on as a housekeeper supervisor and they turned around and hired someone else for the same position and bumped me down back to a regular housekeeper. They didn't say why or anything just hired them and knocked me back down. And there is poor management there
Pros and Cons
There isn't any pros with this company
Owners does not know how to run this business and management is not professional at all

Bartender
Independence, OH - October 28, 2022
The Impulse Lounge, good money to be made and it has been the signature meat market since the 70s. It's the same guests just older. Overall, it was a good time but how much of a career can a bartender have. I loved the kitchen staff, Jackie, and the meals were always delicious. Banquet bars for events proved to be entertaining and always something different.
Pros and Cons
employee meals, cool people especially Jeanette and buffoonery
no raise or recognition

Encouraging and supportive to build your career opportunity with their company. I like the flexiablity of a schedule to work around my life of caring for my elder parents. Meet a lot of people from all around the world.
Pros and Cons
Flexible schedule
If you work 2nd shift there is not much of an opportunity to have a dinner break.

Weston, WV - September 27, 2022
Management while I was there was awesome!!! She did her very best to make sure we as housekeeper's weren't "over-loaded" with rooms... I was the ONLY HOUSEKEEPER to show up once, when the weather was horrible, and she herself took THE OTHER HALF OF THE HOTEL... yes of course I ended up still helping her finish up... But had she NOT of done what she did... I wouldn't have EVER gotten out of there .. unfortunately they have since been "bought out" and are under new management now...
Pros and Cons
Working as a team, but individually accomplished
Sometimes... The work load can be overwhelming...

I have a degree in hospitality management, was over look due to the fact that I was not on the current managers approval list. I would not bend and I was and still am not a "yes" person. I challenged them and I decided that it was best from me to leave due to the fact that the environment became hostile towards me. Because I was leaving in 2 weeks.
Pros and Cons
no advanctages
manager at the time was hostile after giveing my 2 weeks notice.

Jefferson City, MO - June 13, 2022
You always did basically 3 different jobs other than your yours even with no experience or training in that department. I was an inspector but did rms, laundry on top of trying to do my duties as well. company hired kids that kept heir job even though showed for work less than half the time. Seems just wanted bodies there because when the rm attendants did not do their job me as an inspector had to go be hind and do that which, defeats the purpose of them being there and still got paid and was not dismissed though did not perform duties hired to do.
Pros and Cons
you could have a job and not work
If you where in a supervisor position you did everyone else job including yours

I was there when scheduled, hard worker, honest with customers, ran to death, losy pay, i was framed because maintaince man didn’t like me & lied about me to general manager. I was fired inspite everything i did for company. Chris was general manager at time. Was unable to tell my side of a certain situtation, i was accused of something i didn’t do tried and sentenced without being able to defend myself. Company is pathetic. Don’t ever stay there.

Nothing, unappreciated

Marina Manager
Sarasota, FL - February 12, 2022
The marina was totally unorganized with any accountability. The first year the G.M. asked why the marina made $100,000 more than it did the year before. I said simple, that I had given the hotel all the money/income. I kept improving on that, increasing business, satisfying tenants & hotel guests. Even created a Boat & Breakfast , which made money for the marina & hotel. Then the fourth G.M. in four years came aboard. Everything started to change & go downhill. He started taking away my responsibilities, being critical of my management, was not pleasant to the boaters/liveaboards, who had been supporting the Tiki Bar & Restaurant. It was like if it wasn't his idea, it wasn't good. The hotel closed not long after I left.
Pros and Cons
Great location, Very nice facility, Friendly staff
Working for a G.M. who wanted all the credit for himself.

Director
Evanston, IL - February 6, 2022
Ownership was overbearing. Micromanaged everything down to the point of dictating the placement of decorations on the lobby Christmas tree. There was never a clear direction thus creating a different product on a monthly or weekly basis. With lofty aspirations they created services and programs only to discard them after putting on a show at their grand opening. Good and hardworking people lost their livelihoods. Many employees worked for the property for years without a salary increase.
Pros and Cons
It was a paycheck.

St Louis, MO - January 7, 2022
At night time kinda gets boring when your doing audit but other then this I loved working there meeting new and exciting people coming in. You can find it we're their from what there business is etc. At the end of the shift your hoping that they enjoyed there stay unless your there the next day checking customers or and then asking them if everything was ok for them and to see them again as their family now.
Pros and Cons
Office personal was great working with then

First it's a family-owned company and all the upper management is husband and wife and the owner of the hotel is the husband's uncle. When the wife doesn't like you the husband fires you. Not a good look for a franchise company with the names associated with Holiday Inn. The pay sucks. No benefits. No recognition. They offer no training because they never ran a hotel before.
Pros and Cons
None, no dicounts on rooms NOTHING!
Husband and wife running a company is never a good look for the employees.

Apopka, FL - November 8, 2021
I enjoyed working at the hotel as a housekeeper because for the main part of the day you are alone doing your work. Of course, you have a supervisor to come along behind you to check your rooms to see if you did a good job cleaning the guests room. If you did she would leave you alone. If she felt there was something you needed to do or clean better, she would come find you and bring it to your attention. You would be made to stop what you are doing, go back and do it and then come back to where you left off. I seldom had to go back. But when I finished my rooms they didn’t like me to go home. They would send me to go help the other housekeepers to finish their rooms. I’ll let you have your own opinion about that.
Pros and Cons
There was always clean linen and supplies
Very little time for a break and always understaffed

Then we became experienced against the Covit 19. Before full lockdown the Executive Committee, from April 2020 to August 2021 we were furloughed, guaranteed your position would be kept for us. Not so fast. As I heard the story ownership was going to sell the hotel so no Furloughs. No salary but we received Pandemic payments.
Pros and Cons
Free Lunch is a great amenity!
Very positive company!
