Biltmore Estate reviews

Pay is far below the work load. Employees work very very very hard for their little to nothing paycheck. Those vacation days they give you are nice... If you are able to use them. There is no room fro growth here half the staff is made up of interns

Everyone worked only as hard as they felt they needed to to avoid being reprimanded by their boss. The food is designed to appeal to a wide range of day trippers and aging tourists, which is to say that it is not the place to cook if you want to make or learn to make high quality fine dining food. The Estate spends a lot of time and money to give the impression of refinement and class to the grounds and the staff, but at the end of the day the food and wine is nothing special. Upper management is paid well and therefore they work hard to keep things running smoothly and cash flowing. Unfortunately, that makes for a rather bland, you-scratch-my-back sort of culture amongst the staff members. It was not the right atmosphere for me. If you can tolerate it and look past some of the silliness you may enjoy your time there.
