They make you do multiple task outside job responsibilities. Good management, people are nice to work with. Hours are very long and we have to be on our feet all day.

Bad Management

Your hours get cut in housekeeping under 30 hours in the winter especially if theres too many housekeepers from the summer when hours are better. Use this for a temporary job or for more part time in the winter. 17 hour really isn’t 17 an hour when you get 29-30 hours a week instead of 40. They will wean people out on purpose just to save THEM money in the winter if they have too many housekeepers!!!

Great place to work

The management is top tier I worked at the Hyatt which was owned by the drury inn. All of the managers were great and always listened. But however I did walk past a room which had two of the managers in there and heard one say how slow me and another co worker was and making mockery of it even tho I always finished my work before the other workers or at the same time but other than that every one was nice.

Do not work here

I use to work there the supervisor has her favorites and it’s a lot of drama Drama Drama Drama all they do is talk down about the other co workers that works there it is not a good place to work

Good Company

I think the company rewards fairly for hard work. Goals are transparent and easy to understand. You will work long hours most days but like any job in this field some days are way less stressful than others and I think it balances out.

Good First Hospitality Job

The company is great and their hotel discounts were amazing! Great place to get foot in the door for hospitality! Management was poor, but if you put your head down and work it’s fine. There’s some craziness because of the area, but I never felt unsafe.

Overall good place to work

They offer good bonuses depending on surveys and fun staff to be around. Can be stressful with guest's requests but normally have some backup from coworkers or managers. Issues with scheduling and clarity from managers

Good pay ok job

Expect to do a lot of work but also get paid somewhat decently. Certainly not the worst job I've had. Co workers are great. Atmosphere is nice. Overall good.

No matter how great of an employee you try to be, you're simply just a number.

What is the best part of working at the company?Pay and okay benefits they provide to the employeesWhat is the most stressful part about working at the company?Doesn't value employees like they claim they do, poorly ran management team, terrible training program, and no sense of urgency for major ongoing issues.What is the work environment and culture like at the company?Okay work environment but the culture of business is absolutely terrible. What is a typical day like for you at the company?Hectic and if you don't have decent experience in your position, good luck with getting the proper training.

Wonderful Place to Work

Supported by the General Manager. She shows that she cares and doesn’t mind helping when and where needed. True demonstration of a leader! Drury is a wonderful place to work!

Pros

Bonuses, benefits, discounted rates, flexibility…

Cons

Can’t stay at the property in which you work.

I loved working for Drury except....

The entire management team was horrible. They only focused on the negative. They never gave any positive feedback, even when I stayed late, worked multiple shifts to cover when people called out, helped boost their survey ratings that they cared so much about, and worked other departments that weren't in my job description.I felt like some of the staff was out to get me. When I tried to talk to management, they just ignored my request for a mediation. The GM was always in a bad mood and very unapproachable. The shift Manager would yell at me and insult me in front of guests all of the time. I discussed this with management and they didn't do anything. I loved the guests so very much and would have stayed forever if they had a solid, professional management team.

Pros

The guests

Cons

Management, pay

Nice place. Great guests

Too much micro management. Nice environment, staff got along well. The guests were fun to engage with. I had a great time getting to know them, especially the ones who stayed at the hotel frequently for work.

Hard to have a home life

If you really want to advance your career within the company, you must accept that you will work more hours than spending time at home and always be available even on your off days. The company overall does a great job of competitive pay, benefits and includes quarterly bonuses for overall results. This is a great place to work if you don't have a life outside of work.

Pros

Benefits, pay, bonuses

Cons

Alot of hours

La triste realidad

Los gerentes son familia, y las cosas improfecionales que hacen en complot dejan mucha mala imagen sobre ellos me encanta el lugar de trabajo pero lamentable que los MG sean familia y hagan lo que quieran con sus empleados.

Location Specific pros and cons

I learned that being a great employee only gets you more work and very little recognition. Management is only able to do so much but i also cannot say that they try their best to improve overall work conditions. The hardest part of the job is essentially the things that you cant control, but that's also what makes the job ripe with growing opportunities, and learning experiences. The most enjoyable part of the Jobs is always seeing guests come back, then the returns become regulars, and then the regulars become family.

Pros

Travel, Per Diem, Learning experience, Growth opportunities

Cons

Undermines top performers, Negligent/ Absent management, Misguided Hostility

Fast paced and fun!

Drury hotels is a wonderful, family owned company to work for. It really does feel like a family environment. Good management, the owner of the company is so nice. Even though I don’t work there anymore, Drury has gained a customer for life!
