Marriott is the best workplace
Human Resources Commission Supervisor (Former Employee), Orlando, Florida – June 11, 2013
The best part of working with MVCI was the company. A happy employee is a happy customer. The company was employee focused and ensured we were happy.

There was nothing hard about MVCI except leaving.

This is a great company to be a part of.
VOA (Former Employee), Salt Lake City UT – June 6, 2013
Pros: great benefits, pay and job advancement
Cons: far drive to get to the location.
I loved working for Marriott Vacation Club. I truly miss the position I held. I miss the timeshare owners and all the friends I made. It was hard to have to take the pay cut.

Supportive work environment
Quality Control Specialist (Current Employee), Orlando, FL – April 12, 2013
Pros: monthly pot lucks, hotel room discounts, holidays off, etc.
Cons: no growth potential.
A typical day consisted of taking inbound calls from sales reps to do quality control with the guests after a sale was made. Typically, the calls go smoothly but occasionally I would have to smooth over guest issues. Management is very welcoming and willing to help in any situation. My team consists of 8 members all of whom got along well with one another. – more... A very friendly work environment all around. The hardest part of the job is the long wait between calls if it's to be slow and all the monotony of it all. The most enjoyable part is working in a friendly environment. – less

Great benefits but hard to advance professionally.
Business Support Specialist (Current Employee), Salt Lake City, UT – April 6, 2013
Pros: activities and benefits
Cons: few careers
This company offers a large number of jobs but very few careers. The benefits are great and the company tries hard to create a fun work environment. Unfortunately this company does not put any weight on the fact that you have earned a degree.

Fun and exciting
Customer Service (Former Employee), Salt Lake City, UT – February 12, 2013
We would take calls for timeshares owners for reservations, payments and any problems they had with Marriott.
It was a great learning experience.
Management was great always helpful and happy.
The hardest part of the job was not being able to resolve a customers problems.
It was rewarding being able to assist the customers.

Fun and Interesting Employment
Cook (Former Employee), Orlando, FL – December 11, 2012
Pros: free lunch, hotel accommodations, great pay, great healthcare
Cons: management sometimes, dead-seasons
I would get to work, set up my station. turn on all equipment. Check temperatures on the fridges. Prep, Cook, Work with Cash. Micros. Etc. I learned that, you must do everything in your power to ensure that the guest, has the very best time possible. Everything goes into account, when you're on vacation. The people I worked with from all backgrounds, – more... but we all worked as a team to accomplish the final goal and task, which was to give the very best service we possible could. The hardest part of the job, was trying to get the rest of the team encouraged to the intensity I was at. The most enjoyable part was interacting with the guest, and being able to have a part in their lives. – less

MIBK – March 26, 2013

There is no possible way you get 43 rooms a day; in the hotel side you get maybe 15 maybe one or two more if you buy a room. Time share side you get maybe 4 depending on the season. As for lunch it is a Marriott policy that you take a lunch. It is mandatory that all hourly assocaites take their lunc. I have worked in Orlando, Hilton Head and Chicago, it is a great place to work. If it is so bad why have you worked their for 6 years? If it is so bad then quit. McDonalds and 7-11 are always hiring.

This Mariott Grande Vacation Call Center is the worse
present PT Sales Agent (Current Employee), Orlando, FL – September 20, 2012
This place is a bad call center to work in. The managers give you one 10 minute break on a shift and actually come looking for you if you are not back at that last minute. Also I was reprimanded for not telling my Manager I had to use the bathroom. A worker next to me harrassed me yet I got called in and spoken to that I was too loud. Finally they terminated – more... me saying my voice was too loud and I was not the "Mariott Way" ..Stay away from this call center...they promise you high commissions but the reality is you make very little commission and the Managers are not nice. – less

A top place to work for sales.
Sales Representative (Former Employee), Orlando, FL – May 8, 2012
Pros: helping customers, team work, learning persuasion over the phone, great hotel discounts
Cons: short breaks, dealing with rude people everyday, lack of benefits
Each day was different, because my job was dealing with people over the phone, which is unpredictable. I learned the art of persuasion with people over the phone which helped me more with face to face interactions. The management team was good, and my co-workers were very helpful with anything that was needed. The hardes part of the job was dealing – more... with customers over the phone, but the most enjoyable part of the job was helping people have a chance to enjoy a vacation of a lifetime. – less

Pros: great compensation and benefits
Cons: no work/life balance

Envirnoment of the company as a whole could be better with the way the state of the economy is these days.
Accounting Specialist (Former Employee), Lakeland, FL – April 18, 2012
Pros: benefits, pay and associates
Cons: management, moral level low
Loved working with co-workers and those others in different depts / branches of the company but Management style is not quite as great as it once was as they have brought the overall 'moral' down for most of the associates working there - especially those who have been there for many years & seen / feel the change of moral drop from 'high' to a very – more... disappointing 'low'. – less

I applied for a Senior Accountant positon in Orlando and a General Accountant position in St Pete and I want to gain a better understanding of this company's culture. What caused the change in the management style and would you recommend this company to others? Thank you.

Great place to work and learn
CONTRACT PROCESSOR (Former Employee), Orlando, FL – April 3, 2012
Pros: enjoying the people you work with, team outings, pot lucks
Cons: no cons, i loved working at this job.
A typical day for me at Marriott was coming in, saying good morning to everyone, grab my files and begin to work. I learned a lot of office work(admin. assistance) with this company and working for this department. The direct manager and supervisors were wonderful to work for and we always laughed. My co-workers and I had a great relationship, we were – more... like family. Always had pot lucks and team outings. The hardest part about my job was not having enough hours in the day to get everything done. The most I love with this job was the knowledge I learned on Mortgages, Finance documents, and Deeds. – less
