Pros

Quick hiring process. However turnover is high so perhaps some more time spent on hiring quality applicants would be prudent. Corporate IT guy is very helpful and pleasant.

Cons

While it is true that many employees have been with this company for 20+years, it seems to hinder growth of the company as a whole. The best way I can describe the upper management team is "blast from the past" as techniques taught in trainings were quite effective for doing business... in 1990. Questions are answered in the form of links to archaic tools and any sort of actual guidance is hard to find, which may be due to the fact that no one really knows what they are doing with regards to any sort of new technology. There is an illusion of upper management being there to assist, however it feels as though every question you ask is a strike against you. Leaders are careless and two faced; constant feeling of having to watch your back. Also, C level scores are not acceptable for any department. It killed me every time the team congratulated each other for a 76% in any area. Average is not something to celebrate. Very low standards.

Pros

In all fairness, InnVentures used to be a pretty good company but the company has gone downhill dramatically over the past few years. They used to seem to care about their employees but now it is all about their fear of losing their management contracts so they don't have an ounce of loyalty to their people anymore. There are still some very good people working there but the number is fewer and fewer with each passing day.

Cons

Basically, you need to be a warm body who will do everything EXACTLY as the Regional Manager wants and be willing to talk to her at least once a day or they will fire you. They don't care if you have ideas on how to improve the hotel operations, customer service or employee relations...it must be done as the Regional dictates. I have seen them get rid of many great managers who simply didn't do things the way the Regional wanted so they were shown the door. Oh, and forget about a work/life balance. I saw many managers working 12-14 hours a day. The company is so consumed with this fear of losing their precious contracts that it overshadows their humanity and they have turned into a poor excuse of a company and I would not recommend working there to anyone.

Pros

The health and travel benefits. There are some good people in the corporate office. That is about it.

Cons

If you like being overworked and underpaid then this is the company for you. I could list the MANY problems, however, shouldnt it be a red flag when a company rates 2 stars and then all of a sudden has multiple reviews in one day with 5 stars? Way to go Innventures! Sending out an email blast to managers asking them to go online to give you a 5-star review doesn't change who you really are.

We have always promoted an environment of open communication and the comments in your review should be discussed with your manager. Glassdoor specifically recommends that employers encourage reviews from existing employees and we did not ask for a specific rating in that communication.
