Good place to work
Front Desk Agent (Current Employee) - Seattle, WA - December 1, 2023
At the front desk, it's obviously stressful because of guests but the team is good and with cohesion the shifts aren't difficult. Management for the front desk was great, they'd have your back and help you with mistakes.

Unfortunately It was like working in some high school run job.
Housekeeping and Maintenance (Former Employee) - Farmington, UT - November 30, 2023
What is the best part of working at the company? There were some great purple there. Only one good manager of maintenance (Chief Engineer). As for the Hotel Manager, Assistant GM & Housekeeping Manager. All were very unprofessional. I was very surprised to learn. I have a feeling it was unique of this hotel. As I found Hyatt overall as a guest in years past to be a decent place. What is the most stressful part about working at the company? The managers were very emotional in their performance. As a Manager myself with over 20 years experience. I was disheartened to see such an unprofessional team running a very successful hotel chain. I left the company fur a better opportunity elsewhere that I am truly badly with. What is the work environment and culture like at the company? Unprofessional, knee jerk reactions to issues, inconsistent application of processes, Hotel GM who was rarely there. Consistently late in and early out Monday > Friday. Which set the time for the front line managers who lacked integrity and took advantage of his absence.

The good is in the name. The bad is management.
Front Desk Manager (Former Employee) - Eden Prairie, MN - November 30, 2023
I had no training for any programs or policies. I learned by trial and error and the mood of my GM. I had to make a much more warm welcoming environment for our guests than what was offered by the GM. The hardest part was never knowing what mood my GM would be in and how his moods affected the hotel, housekeeping, maintenance ect... the most enjoyable part of my job was my hardworking coworkers - the housekeeping staff are amazing! AMAZING!
Pros
Dressing extremely casual
Cons
The GM

Decent Job
Overnight Cashier (Current Employee) - Orlando, FL - November 30, 2023
The job is simple, easy and the pay isn’t bad. However, if you work part time, get ready to not be put on the schedule when the hotel occupancy is low. You’ll be lucky if you can pick up a shift from your coworkers. Some of the management tend to be petty, so you may have to kiss up to some. Another concern is safety. At one point, cars were getting broken into and tires were being slashed. Don’t expect the company to do anything even if the burglary happened on their property. It’s a good job but be careful if working overnight.

Jobs at Hyatt
Great Place to Work
Marketing Manager (Former Employee) - Corporate offices - Chicago - November 30, 2023
Great team members, and managers definitely respect that you have a life outside the office. Training may not be the best but open door policy of managers really helps in clarifying projects and understanding what is expected. Since it is a very large corporation, sometimes it seems that projects big down in the decision making process and it can be hard to feel like you’ve “accomplished something.” But overall a great place to work.

Fun place to work. Challenging and rewarding. Best hotel I’ve ever worked in. Wanted to stay longer but had to relocate out of state. I got pretty much all my experience as a manager there

Great environment, but they could use some help with change
Housekeeping Supervisor (Former Employee) - San Antonio, TX - November 29, 2023
Great place to work. They lack focus on career advancement. They will fill in a shift just to fill a shift. They could do better on focusing on A Team Players.

Great until they decide they don't need you
Breakfast Attendant (Former Employee) - Fayetteville, AR - November 25, 2023
I loved working at Hyatt during the time I was there. My coworkers were friendly, the work was simple, and I felt like I was contributing. Then I was demoted out of nowhere with no warning as to what I did wrong beforehand despite being told repeatedly before then that I was doing well. Not only that, but a coworker of mine (my roommate) was fired the same day because he "didn't seem to like the job." This happened the day before Thanksgiving after I'd given an entire extra shift to fill in for a sick coworker and we both gave unplanned extra hours to help clean the storage after the owner of the hotel complained. This was a same day firing for my roommate, too. He wasn't allowed to finish out the planned schedule, so not only was I demoted, I would have been running our section the rest of the week by myself. Right before the holidays. I was planning on being with this company for years but I couldn't show my face again after that. Awful management, which I hate to say because this was a manager I thought I genuinely trusted. Avoid at all costs.
Pros
Simple work, free breakfast
Cons
Literally everything I just said in the review

Management needs improvement
Gallery Host (Former Employee) - Athens, GA - November 25, 2023
The management is bad at communicating when you need something from them. They also make a lot of costly mistakes for their employees. They've messed up people's paychecks numerous times for example.
Pros
Flexible scheduling
Cons
Payroll problems, dishonest management, unrealistic expectations

No union at the time
Housekeeper (Former Employee) - Rochester, NY - November 21, 2023
I worked here in the early 2000’s and they worked you like a dog. Sometimes we were ther til 8 pm when we would start at 8am. The tips were good if you could get them before the bellman would steal them. We had free breakfast and lunch. Wish the Hyatt had a union back then….

Disorganized
Kitchen Porter (Former Employee) - Milwaukee, WI - November 19, 2023
No real training. Orientation drifted into inappropriate comments from high-level personnel. Locker combination didn't work when brought on board, and no attempt apparently made to rectify it. The job was easy enough, but coworkers ran the gamut from lovely and kind to absolute nightmares to work with. Serious scheduling issues in department: I was the only one clopening every week and colleagues frequently left posts for upwards of an hour with no explanation. Sanitation and safety concerns at time of employment and not an apparent priority.
