Good place for a good sales person
Front Line Sales Representative (Former Employee), North Myrtle Beach, SC – May 20, 2013
It was a good job for someone that is very good in sales. Timeshare is one of the hardest products to sell because no one that comes in wants to make a purchase. They are all lured in for a free gift. It is the sales persons job to make the sale. All of the people that work there are a lot of fun and great to work with.

I enjoyed working for this company and would not have left, but I signed up for school only to find out that I was mislead. I would still be enjoying employment with Wyndham.

good job.
Receptionist (Former Employee), Evansdale, IA – May 18, 2013
Pros: laid back, great customers.
Cons: low pay, no actual breaks, work alone.
Good job with a good amount of hours. It tends to be boring because you work alone during your whole shift and you also don't have designated breaks.

Enjoy working on the front lines with the guests
Guest Service Representative (Former Employee), North Myrtle Beach – May 17, 2013
A typical day at work would involve checking in the guest, inputting all the necessary information, and following up with the guests to make sure the start of their stay has had no bumps. We also carry a small amount of cash to provide change for guest in the event they would need it.
The most enjoyable part of the job is working one-on-one with the – more... guest.
I dont feel as if there is a hard part to this job. I have become very comfortable with all of my daily activities and responsibility's. – less

DONT DO IT!!
CMA (Former Employee), NEW ORLEANS, LA – May 17, 2013
Pros: meeting people
Cons: everything
Worst place ever. I hate that I left my job thinking I was advancing my career. They basically make you stalk tourist & locals forcing them into seeing a hotel or property to force timeshare down their throats. They make it seem like you'll make all this money but in the end you may get $7.00/hr. Waste of time, don't believe the hype! They need to total – more... revamp EVERYTHING! – less

Decent salary and benefits
Hourly Employee (Current Employee), Branson, MO – May 12, 2013
Pros: benefits and fun co-workers
Cons: corruption within the company
Wyndham can be a great company to work for. It is, however, a very stressful environment. You can become very close with your co-workers because you practically live at work. The hardest part of the job is that fact that we are quite often under-staffed in the places we need the most help. Don't ever think about calling in sick. The employees on commission – more... are constantly recognized for their efforts and receive bonuses on a regular basis. Hourly employees get nothing of the sort. I love the fast-paced job and the experience I have obtained. – less

Didn't Agree With Sales Tactics
Timeshare Sales Representative (Former Employee), Nashville, TN – May 11, 2013
I was not comfortable with a lot of the sales strategies. Compensation was 100% commission, and this was a very tough job.

About my daily work activities
Front Desk Clerk (Current Employee), Valdosta, GA – May 9, 2013
Pros: works well with my sons school schedule
Cons: no benefits and no chances for advancement
Every day I come into work the first thing I do is count my cash drawer. I then go to the computer and print all information needed to assign the housekeepers rooms to clean. Then I charge all 3rd party credit cards. During this time our continental breakfast is in the process to which I am either helping with or actually doing this job as well as a – more... breakfast hostess. My desk duties up to 11 am are to check guests out. At 11:30am I do the credit card report. Afterwards, I maintain the phone for reservations and possible guest information.

I have learned a great deal with this job for the past 7 years. I am great with guests. I have learned how to handle certain situations on my own without management. My co-workers are great we all get along just fine and work extremely well together.

The hardest part of my job is that my area manager refuses to allow the owners to promote me. I find it very stressful to work in a position with no benefits and no possible way of moving forward in the company without his approval. I have been a dedicated employee for 7 years to which I seek a future in but can not. The most enjoyable part of my job is all the different people I get to meet. The ones I see frequently and get to know very well and know what their needs are so I can make sure they are happy every stay. I also think that this is the best crew I have ever worked with. We work together so well, there are a few bumps in the road here and there, but normally our work shifts do run smoothly. – less
