Pros
Your direct supervisors are absolutely amazing! They are there to support you every step of the way, and go out of their way to make sure you have everything you need to succeed. If you are starting to fall behind, they will be right by your side. It is very easy to work with other departments such as Field Sales and Revenue to find properties that will best suit your clients needs. You get to build close relationships with your clients they won't get with competitors. Remote positions allow you to work from anywhere in the country.
Cons
Executives are severely out of touch with not only their own corporate employees, but the property managers as well. Ever since ESA was bought out by Blackstone, the C-Suite's sole purpose has been to please their buyers, even at the cost of their employees. Sales and support teams are in constant fear of having to prove their worth to the department heads or risk loosing their job. Properties are run on a bare bones, skeleton staff. This results in burnt out general managers, dirty rooms that can't be sold, rooms not cleaned to a minimum level of cleanliness, and constant billing issues. Remote employees are constantly thrown to the wind when it comes to any sort of employee appreciation or events. As a corporate employee, you are included on all corporate based employee email listings for company events, but if you don't live in the Charlotte area, you're not included. Multiple attempts to bring in the national sales team for training and team bonding have fell through. Annual "anonymous" employee surveys are send out, but any criticism falls on deaf ears. The company prides itself on making it through the pandemic without closing any hotels or laying off any staff, but as soon as they face economic headwinds, they proceed with rounds of layoffs no matter how long you have been with them or how much you've achieved. Loyalty means nothing to them, and they will upend your life to bring down their payroll.
