Driving Nightmare

Bell Staff and Shuttle Driver (Former Employee), Pittsburgh, PA – February 26, 2013

Pros: free starbucks coffee, summer is most productive but your a slave

Cons: can't enjoy breaks always interrupted, wage freeze

I am a morning worker so I have a less productive day working AM as bellman and also AM driving these local (cheap or no tip) guests. Young people and international guests hardly tip at all. Not the right job if you are a safe and professional driver. Better off as a school bus driver.

Bell person job is almost nothing, if your out driving the houseman – more... gets the business. $5-10 a pop.

Average wage is $10 an hour, workplace is paying you 5 an hour for 35 hours a week and expect you to take care of ups/fed ex shipments, dry cleaning, guest services, smoke butts outside, make sure lobby is free of drinks, newspaper, luggage thrown in the bell closet, polish bell carts, maintenance of the van with oil changes, clean the van, the list goes on. – less

Enjoyed our company picnics with alot food.

Head Houseking Supervisor (Former Employee), San Rafael, CA – February 11, 2013

Pros: free or discount lunchess are great

Cons: benefits are good as pto hours.

Tipical day at work is where I get to stay in the office doing paperwork, I learned how to audit the revenue, the tickets and the cars in the lot. Management gives me a chance to move foward in life and face challenges that comes my way. I like working with my co-worker as a team so when it's busy I'm out there driving with them. The hardest part of – more... my job is when an employee calls in at the last minute and can't find anyone one to cover for them, so I jump in and cover the them. The funnest part is when employee is name employee of the Month and seeing their expression with happiness. – less

good for part-time

Banquet Houseman (Current Employee), Des Moines, IA – February 8, 2013

Pros: free dinners on occasion

Cons: full time hours with part time pay and no benefits

Set up and break down for banquet events. Duties include setting up dance floor, stages, tables, chairs, backdrops, etc. Mentally it is a very easy job, no thinking required but a lot of manual labor is required.

RobertL – March 15, 2013

I was hired as a bellman/driver at this hotel in 2009 and only stuck around for two months at best. The job was make or break when came to tips. The guests rarely wanted help and only aimed for the bell-cart instead. I think they hired me just to test this job to see if it would work. Apparantly, it didn't. After I departed, they no longer had any bell staff. Embassy Suites isn't great for the full service bellhop looking

i WOULD NOT advise to work here.

Resturant Attendant (Current Employee), St. Louis, MO downtown – January 31, 2013

Pros: discounts on different hotel stay

Cons: a lot of cons. just dont apply here.

I work in the food and bev department. THE MOST terrible job ive ever had. the managers treat you like s***(seriously) and so does human resources. You get a write up for the most pettyiest things, (being 10mins early, and not having shirt tucked in) so stupid.

I have some pretty nice coworkers but the management and the customers are the WORST!

You – more... work Very early in the day, just to get off 4 hours later(not a dependable job) and you rarley make good money.

Word to the wise, dont make this a career! STAY IN SCHOOL, (i chose this and im very happy) – less

Where the workers make the job

Housekeeping (Current Employee), Atlanta, GA – January 26, 2013

Pros: discounted rooms, benefits, workers

Cons: everything except for what i named in pros

A typical day at work is alright. It may be a little stressful sometimes. Management needs a little more work. You only supposed to do the job you have and use the little power that you have. But it seems like everybody wants to be the boss there. I love my co workers everyone is nice. The hardest part of the job is to have to deal with people talking – more... down on you because you not nothing but a housekeeper. Most enjoyable part of the job the benefits – less

Housekeeper (Former Employee), Memphis, TN – January 24, 2013

A typical day at work would be very productive. We would all work together as team players. The guests and the management team were excellent. I enjoyed getting up every morning just to go to work at Embassy Suites. I mostly enjoyed being around my co-workers and making it easier for the guests.

Work Day

Assistant Sous Chef (Former Employee), Concord, NC – January 3, 2013

Pros: the knowledge gained

Cons: i'm not there permanently.

Everyday working at Embassy Suites in Concord, NC was a great day! Sous Chef Ron would give me clear instructions as of what is to be done and how it is to be prepared along Chef Bettendorf's standards. I love working in that kitchen and soaking up all the knowledge I can from those guys and the peers alongside of me. I really enjoy working there!
