Pros

Don't have any. Used to have a lot. Thought it was a good company to work for. Then the layoffs started

Cons

CEO Mike Brown and others decided to layoff over 110 employees. No we all know layoffs happen right. However, it is hard to validate laying off a person that has moved around with the company. You have people that uprooted their families and lives to move to a different state and open up a property. Believe me, they tell you that there is the option to promote or take another job within 6 months. But what they don't tell you is that your efforts are not valued and employment is not valued. Then when they laid people off I guess they felt like giving you a severance package pay of one week pay per year you worked for them is ok. Well it isn't. I thought this company was one of the best to work for. I mean i did interviews and sold this company to everyone. Right now they are in the midst of an emerging leader program. However, there are no jobs for them to emerge into. They have cut several management positions. So where are your so called emerging leaders going to go. Do you really think that they will want to continue with this program knowing you just got rid of leaders. By the ay people, this is at least the second time Wyndham has done a mass layoff like this in a 10 year time period (2008 & 2018). So for all of you that may be around in 2028 watch yourself. Your job is not secure or safe.

Pros

Coworkers were amazing, we had a lot of fun and genuinely enjoyed talking with people. It was great to help visitors have an amazing vacation in a town I love.

Cons

Marketers from larger locations would come in to help "boost" our sign-ups by encouraging we lie directly to the owner/guest. Each had their own trick and "new thing" that wasn't really new, if not completely fake. My team valued honesty, and did not want to stoop below our morals. Also, once we were all meeting goals for owner/non-owner sign ups, they bumped up the percentages needed to stay employed. Which resulted in half the team getting fired, and the other half quit since it wasn't going to be the same.
