Cons

Don’t believe the FAKE “positive” reviews. Everything that is described in all the negative reviews is true and it goes back to 2015 if you read all of them. What is the common denominator…the manager. She is the only constant factor that has led to all the negative feedback. Her dictator style of “leadership”, lack of communication, insecurity, and master of manipulation skills has led to the highest turnover rate I have ever seen in the short time I worked here. She has literally driven people to quit on their first day. Yes, even when the Governor is telling everyone to stay home, and roads are flooded and trains are not working, because there is a blizzard or hurricane, you are expected to come to work at 6am and she is texting and calling you to make sure you are there. She insisted on one staff member sleeping overnight at the office on an air mattress that had a hole in it, while his newborn baby and young daughter were at home with his wife, so he could be there to open the office. From the beginning of the pandemic throughout, we were expected to be there, all day, every day, while everyone else – including her, was working from home. When some of us got Covid, SHE decided from her home, who should quarantine. She purposely would tell people to get tested right away if they were exposed, so they would get a negative result and come back to work. We did not get the schedule until Fridays, so we could never make plans or doctor appointments. She took days, sometimes a week to approve time off. Ideas, projects, and presentations that you created were stolen and became her idea, project, or presentation. She never learned the art of conversation because she cut you off with every sentence and talked over you. Don’t dare tell her anything personal because the entire company will know. During one department meeting over the phone, she was discussing a colleague’s family member’s surgery and asking about his test results. She is the queen of favoritism – if you are a “yes man” she will treat you very different than if you just come in to do your job. If you send her a document that needs approval, she will hold onto it and send it back after hours, so you are forced to send it out late. She had the audacity to get mad at a colleague who needed time off to get surgery during the Christmas week when business is at its slowest, and said, “you should have asked us first for permission.” Who asks their boss to get surgery??!! She provided no training, so we all had to learn on our own which caused inconsistency. I can go on and on, you get the point.

Pros

This was such a great company to work for. Very family orientedand and very flexible with your schedule. HR was amazing, very approachable and reposponsive with any questions or concerns you had. They compensate very well and value and appreciate their team members . We had a great team and our Manager was truly awesome. Very reliable, possess a clear vision, has integrity, honesty and she is a definition of a true leader. In the hospitality world, we share one goal, that goal is to make all our internal and external clients happy. We deliver the best and can do attitude. We need to be flexible within reason and ultimately work with them with no hesitation. One of the best companies I have ever worked for.

Cons

Pros

If you like gossiping, starting drama, and stabbing people in the back, this place might be for you.

Cons

Too much drama. Every one that works here pretty much hate each other. Nothing ever gets done on time because employees would much rather gossip than do their jobs, and management doesn't do anything about it because they're invested in the drama as well!
