Fast paced highly demanding work place.
Banquet Waiter (Former Employee), San Juan, Puerto Rico –
Pros: learning new areas every day
Cons: non
A typical day included working on any maintenance area of public housing units, doing handyman work as well as preparing all common areas for federal inspection process. My day included limited supervision because different tasks were assigned to each worker and the day was distributed between these tasks. At the Doubletree Hotel, my day included setting – more...  up for the events and serving all clients, and then cleaning up after the event is over. – less

Doubletree Review
Guest Service Agent (Current Employee), Durham, NC –
I come in gather all information that 1st shift needs to relay pertaining to groups, special needs for guest and any system updates that need to be preform before the start of the shift.

Since Ive been there I have learn how to manage my time wisely, how to engage customers, and work together as a team to achieve the companies goals and create a friendly – more...  and positive environment.

The hardest part of the job is learning not to take anything personal pertaining to the guest that come and stay with us. Sometimes they can be very rude or even non approachable at times but you have to understand that one its part of the job and 2 try to "Wow" them meaning try to see if there's anything in your power that you can do to make there stay more rewarding, pleasant, and enjoyable. Learning how to do that can be rewarding to you as the employee and to them as well because your trying to leave an expression that today was not my best day but these guys are trying to make me feel better and that's whats counts. – less

Doubletree is a very fun and friendly environment to work, the staff and the costumer's are the best, let's now forget Porter's steakhouse it #1
Banquet Server (Current Employee), Collinsville Illinois –
Pros: having a hot and healthy lunch everyday.
A typical day at work is making sure the customer enjoy there day whether it's a meeting, wedding, staying at the hotel or eating at
Porter's. I learned that a (smile) can really make a person day.
Our management staff work along with the employees. I don't feel that any job is hard when you doing something you enjoy. The most enjoyable part of the – more...  job is meeting new people and watch them leave happy each time they visit. Watching our GM gettting out of her heels and working in laundry or even ours sales manager's. How each department work where ever needed that's how we do it doubletree by hilton in collinsville, Illinois. – less

Family atmosphere with teammates who care about guests.
Guest Service Associate (Former Employee), Sharonville, OH –
Pros: fun workplace, benefits, travel discount
Great place to learn genuine customer service. Down-to-earth service unlike other hotel brands that may act "stuffy". Communication and teamwork are practiced daily and apparent reasons for this property's customer service success. Co-workers care about their jobs and care for each other. The hardest part is dealing with specific guests. Although challenging – more...  this will help you develop problem solving skills and develop a strength in customer service. An interesting part about the job is the wide variety of guests who make the job fulfilling and interesting. – less

Housekeeping Supervisor (Current Employee), Danvers, MA –
Pros: free lunch once a month for employees birthdays, cake and pizza left over from partys
Cons: no free lunch, no ice, no soda, dirty tables, dirty dishes, micowaves dirty
Going to work every morning to assign the girls their rooms can be somewhat a big problem but I get it done. We just became a Double Tree so we have new ways at doing things and the room att are having a hard time adjusting.We have some that only do 16 check outs and some that only do 32 stay overs.We have a program that the more rooms the girls do – more...  the more money in the pay check at the end of the week.Some like some do not.But I think its great and I learned to do payroll,budget,schedule,inventory,The hardest part of the job is waiting for the girls to finish because The inspection of the rooms and how many they did for the day cant go into the computer until we have the total hours they worked.If the girls work o.t and do less rooms then assign the do not get the extra room pay.We tell them the more you do in the time you have to go home the more you get paid.The girls work hard and I help them when needed. – less

Supervisor of Restaurant/Banquet Server (Former Employee), Alsip, IL –
Pros: free lunches/dinners, and friendly people
Cons: pay, could not leave hotel for lunch/dinner, management could improve
DoubleTree hotel gave me to feeling that they didn't care about me. Just an employee that was replaceable. Also, no insurance to part-timers.
