Marriott International, Inc. Employer Reviews

There is not a typical day at work. The environment is first and foremost people focussed in exceeding and managing expectations. I have learnt to be pro-active in searching for new business, generate leads / appointments and build on relationships in a highly competitive market. The management style has empowered me to take ownership of sales or marketing – more... focussed projects and strategy. This is the most enjoyable part of the job as I like see results grow from start to finish. – less

its a good place to learn things n meet new people from all around the globe

Marriott International is a fantastic place to work as they always allowed room for advancement, flexible schedule, and a genuine care for their staff.

I really enjoyed working in this environment. It was a great experience for me as a trainee beauty therapist with hands on action. Firstly, sign in, look at the diary, set up for treatments and allocate treatments. Carrying out treatments was the best part of the day for me, I love socialising and satisfying the clients and finding out more about their – more... needs and wants from the treatment, providing after care information and recommending treatments to the clients which will benefit them. 10-15 minutes lunch usually somewhere between if I had time to fit it in or wasn't overbooked.Cleaning down, checking the health and safety check, hygiene checks and sterilising items required or used for the day. laundry and setting up for the next day. Working in part of a team was a big experience for me, working with other therapists from different age ranges and different experiences in treatments gain more insight and knowledge about other options. The hardest part of the job was to sell the business when we are overbooked with treatments and the manager is not organised when required to manage her team. – less

I won't say there is no rules but as far I know it should be to all. Few member who called them as head of department thinks that they can do or say treat anyway because off course they are in the high position and even not capable to hold that position. and the management also trust only on them they don't bother to listen the associates. so i will – more... say rules to follow is only for the low level staff not the managers. there is no same treatment for every people working there. Never want to join back thank god I am free from that kind of environment. Manager had appointed her second person such a women who even do not know anything the reason behind is she was manupulated every time by the women who had hold the assistant manager post. – less

First there is no work and life balance.
Secondly nobody has same opportunity
Third after all your hard work still nobody will care about you

Good company to gain experience and go further, but salary very low even if you worked for them before and did good progress.
Great staff.

Without my fellow associates who were also my friends I would have probably crashed and burned on my first day. It is all on the job training and they literally throw you in the deep end! My manager was remarkable, always kind, understanding and worked amazingly hard. However the supervisors not so much. They were unorganised, quick tempered and didn't – more... have any consideration for all the new starters. When I actually got a break they did provide free food and drink. – less

Especially enjoyed my job role here, learnt much about other cultures and their attitudes to both work and living in England. Management were friendly, approachable and most helpful in guiding their employees toward achieving their goals and being of sympathetic assistant if there was a problem. Co workers were extremely nice and easy to work with on – more... a personal level. There existed no hard part about the job. The enjoyable part was that there was a wonderful homely atmosphere about the place, it was a pleasure to work there. – less

I enjoyed working for Marriott, they really have equal opportunities for associate and management. You can discuss your concerns and if supervisor is unfair, you can complaint. Marriott REALLY care about employees.
Every year we wrote anonymous job satisfaction survey.
A typical day was serving quests and talked to them, make that they will have a nice – more... experience of staying with us.
I learned that each guest we have to treat equally. doesn't matter if he is holiday guest or businessman--is not written on his forehead.
The hardest part of the job was when colleague let you down and did not come to work. or management didn't know own department. – less

Enjoy working for marriott very like minded people guests are fun

Good workplace, fun to work and very enjoyable, i worked as a commis chef, helping other chefs within the kitchen, as i had little experience within the kitchen i didnt get a great deal of responsibly but they gave me challenging tasks and gave me my independence as a colleague. Great company to work for.

Disgrace for the respectable Marriot chain hotels because:
1.Highly unprofessional recruitment process. One of my friends work there and from it i got to know that they only hire friends of their friends. No matter what level of English ( if spoken at all) is present or what are their skills/ experience. There is at least 2 people that got the job because – more... of the "aquaintances" they had with current employees.
2.They have high employee turnover. Every time when visiting their website there are numerous vacancies for Preston Marriot. comparing to the other Marriot hotels in Manchester for example. bearing this in mind, this fact is alarming. and obviosly shows that there is some management issues present if there is constant lack of staff and people leaving.
I don;t want to put you off, but think about it. – less

went in at 5:30 for breakfast shift
on my shift was from 6am to 1500
daily running of restaurant and bar

to many people involed in things ie....heads of departments giving jobs out when they should not

Good, fun place to work with very good pay. But I was casual so shifts weren't always available

I LEARNED MOSTLY ABOUT CHILLERS ,HOW IT IS SERVICING AND THE MAINTENANCE OF THE CHILLER.AND ALSO ABOUT MAINTENANCE OF AIR HANDLING UNIT IN ALL GUEST ROOMS.MY CO WORKERS ARE FRIENDLY AND WE ALL ARE WORKING LIKE ONE TEAM .MY MANAGEMENT IS A GREAT SUPPORT FOR ME.I LOVE MY JOB AND WILL ENJOY IT.

according to me working in marriott is good for an individual to develop his or her personal and professional career but the h.r policies are quite lazy but i have learnt a lot of things related to my field in that property my co workers were very good.the most enjoyable part of the job was to interact with the guest personally

Enjoy working with ladies and get things done in a timely manner. Hardest part was during slow seasons..not enough hours. Most enjoyable part is working with ladies and cleaning.

I was able to assist all types of customers and reach customer satisfaction frequently.
