Prós
I joined the Ritz-Carlton as soon as I was given the chance. They flashed a positive work environment with excellent benefits if you work full time.

However, if for any reason your boss doesn't like you, good luck trying to get ahead. Management, at least the location I was in, was a complete disaster. I should've known better when someone quit on my first day and blamed me while I was being given a tour. I thought she was crazy, but I realize that the location drove her to insanity. At first, I was enjoying my time. My experience was as I hoped. Decent hours, good enough pay, and I only witnessed mild drama. However, soon enough I realized the toxic nature of upper management. Actively lying to subordinates and covering up their mistakes to their superiors.
