Pros

Occasional complimentary food when an in-house group over orders

Cons

Disconnect between corporate office and properties. The turnover rate is alarming, mainly because those who leave do so willingly.

I am sorry about your experience at our company. Are you reviewing Salamander Resort & Spa (SRS) or another one of our companies down South? We have had very little "task force" at SRS (maybe one in the last year), and no temp workers. We have reviewed our turnover, and we are in line with most resorts. Regarding your comments about "Pros" -- We have an annual holiday party for employees, special free meal days to celebrate our anniversary, holidays etc. In the past we have held a talent show, employee picnics, and regular fun competitions (Pumpkin carving contest, door decoration contest, best Halloween uniforms etc). And this is only to name a few.

I am sorry about your experience at Salamander Resort & Spa. Like you, I have been working at this resort for 3 plus years, and in no time have I witnessed top management uninterested in achieving our goals, namely to achieve the coveted 5 Star rating by Forbes. This consumes top management on a regular basis. Sometimes, based on the volume of work top leaders have on their plate, it may convey less focus at times, but top management here is focused daily on achieving 5 Star for the company, the employees, and our owner. It is unfortunate you felt your manager(s) did not listen to your suggestions. I can assure you that is not the standard at SRS. Annually we distribute an Engagement Survey seeking opinions and feedback from our employees and many of their suggestions have been implemented (as we have highlighted in our regular "Town Halls"). Again sorry for your experience.
