Pros

My personal time is valued by my superiors, peers, and direct reports. Team building and customer satisfaction are high priorities and leadership fully comprehends potential impact of success and failure. Everyone strives to consistently improve upon both, with honest dedication to excellence.

Cons

A history of quick and poorly made hires/ promotions has created hardship for team members with ability or high potential. Waiting periods are imposed despite occasions where management level team members are identified but were hired at property level rather than recruited through corporate talent acquisition. This may lead quality employees to seek opportunities elsewhere- a great disadvantage and time drain to all levels of property staff and leadership.

We very much appreciate you taking the time to write such a thoughtful review. For our high potential employees that are looking for advancement, it is essential that Talent Acquisition, Talent Management and Leadership are working together to help them grow their careers with ELS. As you mentioned, HR and Leadership are currently taking steps to make this process even stronger. Currently, around 20% of our open property manager and office positions are filled with internal candidates, and we put a lot of thought and time into developing our employees to ensure they are able to grow their career within ELS. Thank you again for your review!
