Pros

I'm a people person, so I really enjoyed my time interacting with the guests! Because the property had a small staff, there was a sense of family between the GSRs, housekeepers, and maintenance/answer-to-all-our-problems man. ESA provided on-going training which was nice. I was able to leave with basic sale knowledge based on the training I received throughout my time at the property.

Cons

There was a huge disconnect between management and lower level employees. The hotel lead was very lazy and often pushed all his work to the GSRs. The hotel manager was not supportive of the staff and kept pushing for more. There were times that the manager would be on-site for just a few minutes before leaving... never to be seen again. We would often have irate guests that management would not want to deal with, so the GSRs had to handle specific circumstances.

Pros

Great leadership from management! My GM has really taken me under her wing and ensures I have all the knowledge & tools available to be the best I can be. She goes above and beyond for the entire staff, consistently shows her gratitude, and never asks anything of the staff that she isn’t willing to do herself! Customer service is my favorite line of work and the only work I’ve ever done. ESA is my first hotel job, and I feel so at home with the company. When I was initially hired, I was just looking for a way to make ends meet. I’ve been with ESA for over 90 days now, and I have grown to love being a part of this company. I am in it for the long haul, and look forward to growing with this company and advancing my career!

Cons

I have no cons. My employment so far has been amazing!
