Pros

Job security and hotel discounts are the two best reasons to work for Marriott. It is next to impossible to get fired from Marriott unless you have REALLY screwed something up multiple times. The discounts you get at other Marriotts when you travel are unbeatable. They also match up to the first 4.5% of your 401k contributions, which is great.

Cons

I have worked at multiple different Marriott brands over a 4 year period. They have all had the same problems. Management is greedy and is much more concerned with making themselves look good than helping their team learn and grow. They claim there are so many career opportunities, but that is only if you suck up to the right person, not if you do the job better than other candidates.

Pros

Bebefits like medical were good.

Cons

During my employment as a Quality Assurance employee, I experienced clear unequal treatment compared to colleagues in the same position. Westbound QA employees were not required to clock in and out for lunch, while Eastbound QA employees like myself were required to do so — despite holding identical job classifications. As an hourly employee, this meant I was regularly working unpaid time during mandatory "break" periods. This was not a minor oversight — it was a policy applied unequally between teams. When I raised this concern directly to my manager, instead of acknowledging the legitimate issue, my manager responded by threatening to file an internal HR complaint against me — claiming I had raised my voice in a customer area. I did not raise my voice. Rather than addressing the problem, my manager used this as an opportunity to discourage me from speaking up further. This entire conversation was recorded with my manager's full knowledge and consent. Additionally, a senior manager in my department consistently declined notarization requests from the sales team, redirecting all notary work to me despite being equally qualified. When I was finally given authorization by the Director to take my 30-minute break, I returned to find 7 notarization documents piled on my desk — the senior manager had declined to handle them during my authorized absence.
