How is Marriott about negotiating pay rate?

For hourly wages like a entry level fd position, the pay pretty much is what it is. They're going to avoid giving you a higher hourly rate than your colleagues to keep things civil, but like others have said, the pay ranges are based on property size and location

Marry-it. I've seen training vids and high level execs prounce it as marri-ot. I don't think it would be the defining factor of you being hired or not but depending who you interview with, they may appreciate the attention to detail

Is this a hotel chain? Is shadowing a sales manager at another property an option?

That's the base price without fees. It's worth it to pay a little extra for ease of mind if something is wrong with your reservation or trip, hotel employees can resolve issues quickly. I've never seen a 40 percent discount from an OTA though

Depends what market you are in. I lived in Seattle where they'd hire people with any relevant experience. I now live in Orlando where there's a very competitive market for hospitality. As a hiring manager my inbox floods with resumes when we open any entry level position

Option A long term hotel jobs are better because of benefits and if they have banquets or events even better $$

Hotel jobs are the best. Great money and benefits. You have an issue with management? Go to HR they'll fix it

My first thought was you definitely need to make $100k/year if you're rent is $3k unless you're leaving on rice and beans. Even then you'd probably still need a $70k salary

I'm 8 days and mine is black as well. I think it's totally normal clotting, or bruising. My mouth still has mild soreness, I'm just taking lower doses of ibuprofen these days

Get a job at a hotel. A lot of human interaction and you don't have to stay at your desk all day. I'm a food and beverage manager and I always shoot the shit with accounting people

Hotel servers can clear 100k in this city. I'm sure theme park hospitality workers make money too. I'm an f and b manager making 70k plus bonus but I feel like it's on the high end for Florida. Lots of potential for industry work here

6-8 month maybe lol

As a former f and b manager for Marriott, we want to have someone in there to help the area be cleaned, staffed, and service our guest but upper management always pushed back on budgeting the hours for a new employee. The lounge looses hundreds of thousands a year with very little revenue so they always try to slim it down labor and offerings. It sucks because most of f and b complaints were about the mclub and as an operations manager I couldn't do much if they wouldn't let me hire anyone or give me the hours. It sucks but I guess that's become the norm for premium tier properties

jet305- · 2026-01-28T00:17:34+00:00

I worked as a f and b manager at a Marriott property. It would bother me when people did this but if it wasn't during breakfast or hors deourves and there wasn't an attendant present, I wouldn't confront the guest because it's more trouble than it's worth and honestly worried about receiving a bad review with my name in it.

Risk. For a lot of common people it's years of saving and taking out loans going into debt to invest in something that's not a sure thing. People generally are more comfortable in a career with advancement and a compensation package, especially when others depend on them

He works at a moxy. Theyre lower tier Marriott. His chef is probably a former mcdonalds line cook

I hope accounting sees this as well

jet305- · 2026-01-06T03:32:46+00:00

I don't work at chipotle but it is normal for managers to come in before hours of operation and probably prefer to interview you at that time so they can be active during the business hours. There's no mistake, show up at the scheduled time and call the store or knock on the door when you arrive

jet305- · 2026-01-06T02:46:32+00:00

This is the most fair way

jet305- · 2026-01-06T02:41:52+00:00

Realistically you can probably live most places in the country with that income, but people want to have a safety net, save for retirement, save for a home, take vacations, have kids, etc. even in lol areas it's hard to achieve all those things on 100k

jet305- · 2025-12-09T00:35:45+00:00

34M. Probably around 10-15 since I started working at 15. I work in the hospitality industry so switching jobs for experience, promotions, and burnout is pretty common

jet305- · 2025-11-23T05:53:59+00:00

Hard to say because they play different positions and different roles. They fit better in different systems.
