Pros

The staff canteen is okay. There are plenty of Jr Chefs to manage.

Cons

The desserts are bad. Style of food is from the 60’s and will not change. The senior chefs treat new members of the team like they don’t belong there because they have been working there for 5-15 years and don’t like new managers. Psychological abuse and verbal abuse. Long hours and a very busy work environment. Others make a simple job difficult. The list goes on I’ll leave it at that.

Pros

The name and prestige thats all!

Cons

Extremely long hours (10+hours) and constantly on our feet , the managers are picky with every single unnecessary details and staff are fed up with the way this place is managed . We are constantly climbing the narrow stairs up and down to serve the food and canapes ,since the hotel interior is extremely old . I have started to experience knee pain and backpain throughout the long shifts. There is also little opportunities for progression/ promotion as the hotel is small and over staffed so your chance of progressing is very little
