Pros

it is a known brand It is hard for me to come up with any other pros

Cons

- terrible senior management with focus on communicating up and assigning blame instead of truly leading - HR was ineffective - our team was subjected to swear words in team meetings from our VP as well as collection of other bullying and unprofessional behaviors - no ownership or responsibility defined and no strategic goals communicated - lots of overworked and unhappy employees with not much results to show for it - considerably behind the industry in learning and new technologies. I had to do a lot of catch up at my next job after being a part of Hilton's digital analytics team - too much outsourcing - and way too many vendors with conflicting agendas - would not recommend this place to anyone who is looking to do some real work in the field of analytics, contribute, and grow

Pros

Great staff and lowermanagement. Last general manager was unfriendly and not very helpful.

Cons

I was supposed to get long tenure status for lifetime friends of family with my veteran status. Worked at Hilton 9+ years. Supposed to get 1 year for my veteran status (according to the handbook at that time) which would make 10 years. HR supposedly turned in application in August 2024. I even followed up and was told they were working it. It's been almost 2 years and haven't heard anything yet. Very disappointed and dissatisfied. Guess I won't be staying at Hilton Hotels.
