My Job
Health and Safety Officer (Current Employee), Dubai festival city united arab emirates – October 28, 2012
its interesting and i look forward for each new day for new experience. i love my job
to be responsible and gained confidence
as long as u understand your team mates in the way to treat them individually you become a good team leader and you work as one team and deliver good results.
the hardest part of the job is whereby you have a member who do not – more... understand the spoken and written language. it take little more time to have the job done.
the enjoyable part of the job is when i see the building completed or any construction in the company and the was nobody injured or any damage of the tools used. – less

Productive and fun workplace.
Banquet Server (Current Employee), Toronto, ON – July 26, 2012
Pros: great management, decent pay.
Cons: not enough hours to work.
The hardest part of the job is to be on your feet for 7 hours. However the staff that you work with make it worthwhile. Everyone, including management team is always very positive and up-beat. You do get to eat the good food that the Hotel makes when you get the chance to have a break. The most enjoyable part of the job is to meet different people and – more... to be able to serve them in the best way you can. When customers are satisfied then it reflects on the working staff. I have learned to properly set up tables in different functions, I have also learned to use my strength when carrying heavy plates and trays. My time management skills are enhanced since each function consisted of specific time periods of when to serve and to clean. – less

Working in the kitchen i`v learned a lot of things not only about the dessert, i`eve learned how to work with the different – more... nationality,to be more flexible,to be more strong,to be more responsible and to win.Most of the management is not good because sometimes they don't know how to listen to their staff they are not aware in the operation time but there is one chef that who appreciate his staff it means he knows his staff.Hardest part of my job is long hours duty because were lack of staff and the people whose not working only talking, the most enjoyable part of my job is doing production and working with freedom and love. – less

This company has taught me to become more organize with the guest reservations, and to help the guest find the best hotel for them to stay, also help them understand the value and qualities to each 1,000 plus properties. The work atmosphere is great, very eco-friendly, clean, and the people I work with are friendly, and very polite to one another. When – more... I first got hired, I didn't have sales experience, it was hard at first, I have to sale hotels of why this property will work for them, trying to sound confidence when I don't know the answer, as a central reservation, its hard to sale the hotel when you don't live where you say you are. Once I got use to it, I become a better sales person and more confidence to my resource, thanks to my manager. – less

IHG puts its people first
Guest Relations Expert (Current Employee), North America – March 5, 2013
Pros: great culture
Cons: the recession hit hotels hard but hospitality is on a comeback.
Intercontinental Hotels strongly cares about developing people to become better in their lives. From Health and Wellness initiatives, to growth through learning and development IHG gives the avenues for people to make the most out of their lives.

Hotel work is hard work. Also to get the most out of the company you have to be a team player and be willing – more... to be patient to advance. Also you have to be free to relocate. – less

Challenging but Productive
Fulfillment Executive (AMER) (Current Employee), Makati, P00 – February 27, 2013
Pros: food allowance / business travels
You will be in front of the computer the whole shift, but then you get to talk to the Account Owners, Key Account Directors and Third Part Agencies you support in processing Group request / Groups and Meetings and Tour Series on the Leisure and Government segment of the IHG Americas Sales.

You will learn everyday, new things on the system, with the – more... accounts and everyone is professional with their jobs. We help each other every time as needed.

The hardest part is the amount of work load, I like to be challenged, but sometime the 9 hour daily shift is not enough specially on RFP season and every month end when we do our end of the month reports.

The most enjoyable part of the job is you get the chance to participate on Business Meetings on different locations. – less
