Sheraton Employer Reviews

you work a lot in thight spaces other than that it was a good job.

This was a temporary/ seasonal employment. However, I was able to grow and learn so much about running a business.

Typically started with setting up the line for the dinner rush. What i learned was a few french chef termanology words. the hardest part of the job was that it was not busy enough most of the time. the most enjoyable part was the great food i got to cook!

Checking on current clients. Research leads for new clients. Meet with potential groups and sell them on the Sheraton. learn what their needs are and determine costs. Give tours of property. Go out on sales calls, cold calls, etc. Provide promotional packets upon request. The management was wonderful, as well as the co-workers. The hardest part was – more... determining where to go next to find new clients, but this was also part of the most enjoyable part. – less

It was very stressful and didn't work around anything. i love my manger but it just wasn't working out. I need to be around customers and this job didn't consist of that.

At Sheraton, our aim is to make sure that every guest has a memorable experience. I try my very best to make sure that each guest feel like they belong to the Sheraton family.

Sheraton was a great place to work.
I enjoyed all I learned about the hotel and convention business.

Nice place with good people to work with, and the management was nice. Not that good of pay though. The job itself was not hard though.

A typical day is setting up overnight room accommodations for VIP guests with my groups. There is a lot of communication between my event planner and VIP clients, to go over billing, and requirements for the different groups. Prepare for weekly meeting.

Actively solicit new accounts by cold calls, outside sales, and prospecting. In charge of entire operations of the Sales Department.

I enjoyed learning a new line of work (Sales).

~ Managed Accounts Receivable, charge backs and guest billing issues
~ Analyzed and recorded daily hotel revenue
~ Managed hotel main safe, daily bank deposits and assigning/auditing associates banks
~ Created cashier worksheet to balanced all cash and credit transactions on daily basis

~Poor management and poor benefits

~The hardest part of the job: – more... extremely stressful, poor communications, and favoritism

~The most enjoyable part was working with nice/supportive co-workers, great Human Resources Department and most of all, my immediate boss was fair, intelligent an awesome person to work with – less

Taking care of all guest needs apon arrival until the end of their stay.How to interact with guest of all nationalities.Serving and working alone or with groups were some advantages.I enjoy my co-workers we get along very well very professional workplace. There is not a hard part as a concierge attendant its one of the most layed back jobs a person – more... could have.The most enjoyable part of my job is getting to meet new people everyday and some times you find life long friends in this profession. – less

The housekeeping staff is pretty nice, and so are the managers, the cooks, and the front desk workers. The housekeeping supervisors give the housekeepers grief. They assign so many rooms and stay on your back at all times. One in particular loves to pick on certain people and make their day horrible. No holidays, weekends, and asking for time off is – more... like asking them to remove a foot. The housekeepers are definitely underpaid for the work they do. – less
