Pros
None. If you aren’t friends with someone in a higher up position don’t think you will get a promotion. And this is on the GM level. Work your butt of for them and they will reward you by launching 80 hotels and the owner of the company sending an email to those 2500 people being tossed away saying this will be great for Whit Lodging being able to expand in the future. Sorry about your luck if you’re one of the 80 hotels given up.
Cons
If there were any positives left in this company they tossed them all away when they announced the separation of 80 hotels from the company. Oh no big deal WLS. You just fired 50 corporate employees and let 2500 go to another company right before Christmas. Thanks Bruce! We hope you and Ken and your families have a GREAT Christmas and you guys Lee making enough money to support your huge pompous egos!
