Pros

My sales coordinator colleagues were amazing! The catering/events team is outstanding as well.

Cons

As a former sales coordinator at Four Seasons Austin, I feel compelled to share my unfortunate experience with prospective employees. My tenure at this establishment was marred by an environment that was not just unprofessional but downright abusive. First and foremost, the HR department and my manager exhibited blatant disregard for employee well-being. Despite clear struggles with my mental health, instead of offering support, they actively sought my resignation. Their lack of empathy and understanding only exacerbated my condition. Moreover, the inflexibility regarding my work schedule was appalling. Despite my attempts to communicate the challenges posed by an extensive commute, there was no willingness to accommodate. The result? Frequent lateness, which was met with nothing but disdain. Adding insult to injury, the workload was disproportionately light, leaving me with ample idle time. Despite this, my manager failed to provide constructive feedback or guidance. Instead, her communication consisted of nothing but snide remarks and passive-aggressive messages. In summary, my time at Four Seasons Austin was a harrowing ordeal that left me mentally and emotionally drained. Prospective employees, beware: unless you're willing to endure an environment rife with mistreatment and disregard for well-being, I urge you to seek opportunities elsewhere.

Pros

Very friendly staff. Straightforward job with good pay. Overall an enjoyable job.

Cons

Inconsistent hours. Burnout can occur if you're looking for something easy. Other than that its pretty much exactly what you'd expect. Good job to have.

Pros

Great immediate management (up to department head), good travel benefits (although not as good as previous years), health insurance excellent. Travel benefits are nice when you can use them. Become better at what do you, but with an emotional cost.

Cons

Toooo profit heavy and want to please owners versus staff, worklife balance needs improvement although it's getting there. Pulse Survey results need to be taken more seriously by PC and not put on department heads and asssitant managers, need accountability on PC to action. Terrible employee meals, especially if not AM Monday through Friday. Poor corporate ELT team since post covid times.
