Pros

Good team atmosphere Flexible working hours Remote working whenever you like

Cons

Tech stack: (Wordpress, PHP, JQuery) Pay: Be prepared to work for terrible pay. If management could get away with paying you £1 an hour, they would. So don't bother to look for a raise at any point. If you want more money, you'll need to look for another job. If you're coming straight from higher education e.g. college, uni - this job isn't a bad job. You'll get experience, for sure. (Which is what everyone is dying to get) - However, if you're an ambitious Developer, constantly looking to skill-up, and work with the latest and greatest...you'll soon find yourself stagnating after the first 6 months. The skills you'll walk away with are VERY basic. So, if you've not been studying in your own time, be prepared to be unprepared for what the industry is looking for in terms of skills and experience. Because this job wont give you that.

Pros

Different services and softwares provided by Hilton are convenient to have access to.

Cons

The new PMS system, PEP, is awful. They got rid of F&B Distribution for night audit which means a lot less work for night auditors and way more work for accountants. PEP also doesn’t have the same functionalities as OnQ, the previous PMS. I have not heard any good thing about PEP after all these years. The team member travel discounts aren’t good anymore. They used to be flat rates across three tiers of hotels, but now they are extremely variable and can run very high. On top of that, hotels and resorts still charge team members for parking and service fees, so you still can’t afford to travel on the discount. That is, if you even find the team member rate available. Chances are, you’ll be working for a franchisee, not Hilton itself. They may be one of the world’s best companies to work for, but you probably won’t actually be working for them. California taxes and district fees felt mishandled by corporate.
