Cons
Who you know, not what you know Ever changing policies and procedures for PNW region Revolving door of staff and support staff Career advancement is often determined by Regional Manager Favoritism runs wild in PNW region Everything is blamed on "not enough money in the budget" Unless you are in the Downtown flagship properties, don't expect to get noticed or visited by RM/VP/Directors. Suburban areas like Tacoma, Bothell, Renton markets rarely get as much notice as Downtown high end flagship properties Managers are expected to have emails/calls on personal phones by select Regionals resulting in late night deadlines, and skewed work/life balance.
