Is the corporate office actually planning more cuts?
With the latest round of layoffs hitting, the vibe at the office is incredibly toxic right now. Management keeps dropping phrases about 'streamlining operations' and 'focusing on core growth,' which we all know is just code for more heads rolling soon. I’ve been here for a few years, but I’ve never seen the uncertainty this high. People are updating their LinkedIn profiles during lunch and whispering in the breakrooms. Is anyone else hearing rumors about upcoming reductions in other departments or regions? It feels like the company is trying to trim as much fat as possible before the end of the year to make the balance sheet look better for investors. Honestly, it makes it hard to even care about the daily tasks when you’re wondering if you’ll have a badge that works on Monday morning. Any intel on whether the hiring freeze is going to expand or if more layoffs are expected before January?
Confirmed: 79 people let go at the Lebanon location
Just saw the official WARN filing go through for the Lebanon site. Looks like 79 roles were cut effective October 18th. It feels like every month we’re hearing about another 'restructuring' or 'efficiency initiative.' If you were impacted by this round, I’m really sorry. The silence from leadership is deafening, as usual. Everyone I talk to in my department is nervous that we’re just waiting for our turn on the chopping block next. Does anyone know if this is the end of the cuts for this quarter, or should we be bracing for more? The corporate communications act like everything is business as usual, but the numbers don't lie.
Hiring freeze rumors or just slow recruitment?
Hi all, I'm in the process of interviewing for a role at Marriott and it feels like it's dragging on a lot longer than expected. The initial recruiter seemed really keen, but since the hiring manager interview, things have gone quiet. I followed up and was told they are 'still reviewing candidates' and that there might be a 'temporary pause on external hires' while they assess needs. This sounds suspiciously like a hiring freeze to me. Has anyone else experienced this recently, either as an internal candidate or someone going through the external hiring process? Are roles that were posted still open, or have they been pulled down? I'm trying to figure out if I should keep my hopes up for this position or focus my energy elsewhere. Any insights from current Marriott employees or recent candidates would be super helpful. Is the company actually tightening its belt, or is this just a slow hiring cycle? Thanks in advance.
Morale seems really low lately, anyone else notice?
Hey everyone, Been with Marriott for a bit now, and I'm not sure if it's just my department or if it's a company-wide thing, but the vibe has been pretty off recently. People seem more stressed, quieter in meetings, and there's this underlying tension. I've heard whispers about budget cuts, hiring freezes, and some reorgs happening behind the scenes. Nothing concrete, mind you, just the usual office gossip mill. But combined with the general economic climate and the hospitality industry still finding its footing post-pandemic, it's hard not to feel a little uneasy. Are others in different divisions seeing similar things? Are projects getting pushed back, or are teams being asked to do more with less? Just trying to gauge if this is something others are experiencing or if I'm just overthinking it. Curious to hear what others are observing, especially if you're in a different brand or region. Stay safe out there.
Anyone else feeling the job security jitters?
Lately, there's been a lot of talk around the virtual water cooler about 'streamlining operations' and 'optimizing resources.' Sounds corporate-speak for something else, right? I've been keeping an eye on LinkedIn and other industry news, and while there haven't been any big announcements, the overall vibe feels... uncertain. My workload hasn't really changed, but the constant buzz about efficiency and restructuring is definitely making me a little anxious. Trying to stay positive and focus on my work, but it's hard not to think about what could be coming down the pipeline. Anyone else experiencing this or have any insights into what might be driving these changes?
Is it just me or are projects getting stretched thin?
Been at Marriott for a few years now, mostly on the corporate side. Lately, it feels like everyone's plates are overflowing. We're being asked to do more with less, and not in the 'innovative solutions' kind of way. It's more like 'just get it done, somehow.' I've seen a couple of teams consolidate recently, and the remaining folks are picking up the slack. Makes you wonder if they're anticipating something, or just pushing for maximum output before... well, you know. Anyone else feeling this pressure cooker environment? Just trying to gauge if it's a company-wide thing or if my specific department is just going through a rough patch.
Anyone else notice fewer new hires and more internal reshuffles?
Been working at one of the larger Marriott properties for a bit now, and I've noticed a definite slowdown in external hiring. We had a couple of positions open in F&B and front desk that have been vacant for months, with no signs of new candidates being brought in. Instead, I'm hearing about people being 'realigned' or moved internally to fill gaps. It's making things pretty tight with existing staff trying to cover. Is anyone else experiencing this? It feels like they're trying to cut back on new onboarding costs or maybe consolidating teams. Just curious about the broader picture.
Seeing a lot of 'efficiency improvements' – anyone else?
Hey everyone, been with Marriott for a few years now, mostly on the corporate side supporting our hotels. Lately, I've been hearing a lot about 'efficiency improvements' and 'streamlining operations' in various departments. It feels like more than just the usual buzzwords. My team's project scope has been significantly reduced, and a few roles that were open are suddenly 'on hold indefinitely'. Just wondering if this is a wider trend or if I'm just in a particularly affected area? Has anyone else's team seen similar shifts? Trying to gauge if this is just business as usual or if there's something more to it.
Potential budget cuts impacting teams?
Lately, it feels like the purse strings are being tightened pretty significantly. My department had a few projects that were initially greenlit, but now they're suddenly on hold indefinitely, citing 'budgetary constraints.' We're also seeing a push to 'optimize resources,' which seems to translate to doing more with less, or in some cases, potentially losing resources. It's not just my team; I've heard similar stories from colleagues in other divisions about cancelled initiatives and reduced spending on non-essential items. It's making it hard to plan for the next quarter and beyond. Has anyone else experienced sudden project cancellations or significant budget cuts within their teams recently? Curious to know if this is a broader trend across Marriott or isolated incidents. The lack of clear communication is really adding to the anxiety.
Hiring freezes and whispers of restructuring
Hey everyone, I've been at Marriott for a few years now, and lately, the vibe feels...off. It started subtly a few months back with a noticeable slowdown in hiring for some roles, and now it feels more like a freeze in many departments. My team's manager even mentioned that new headcount approvals are virtually non-existent. On top of that, there are quiet conversations happening about 'efficiency reviews' and 'streamlining operations' across different brands and corporate functions. It's making me a bit uneasy, to be honest. I haven't seen any official announcements or heard any concrete news about layoffs, but the general feeling of uncertainty is palpable. Anyone else picking up on this? Are your departments experiencing similar hiring freezes or hearing similar buzzwords about restructuring? Just trying to gauge if this is a company-wide thing or if I'm just in a particularly affected area.
Morale seems to be dropping, anyone else feel it?
Just feels like the energy has shifted lately. Lots of whispers about 'efficiency improvements' and 'streamlining operations' in recent all-hands meetings. Honestly, it just sounds like a precursor to cuts, even if they aren't saying the L-word. People are starting to hoard knowledge and look out for themselves, which is a bummer. Used to feel like a more collaborative environment. Now it's just quiet anxiety. Anyone else feel like the company culture is taking a hit? Hard to stay motivated when you feel like your job security is constantly in question without any clear communication from leadership. It's making work pretty miserable, frankly.
Anyone seeing department cuts or project cancellations?
Hey all, been with Marriott for a few years now and things feel... off. Haven't heard any official layoff news, and my direct team is still intact, but I've noticed some project scopes shrinking dramatically. We also had a couple of internal teams quietly 'realigned' last month, which sounds like corporate speak for 'consolidated' or worse. My manager is giving off some stressed vibes too, deflecting direct questions about future headcount. Anyone else in different departments seeing similar signs? Thinking about updating my resume just in case, but hoping it's just a slow season. Curious if this is widespread or just my corner of the org. Let me know what you're hearing.
Rumblings about potential restructuring? Heard anything?
Okay, so this is pure speculation from what I've overheard in a few hallway chats and some vague allusions in team meetings, but has anyone else heard whispers about potential organizational changes or restructuring at Marriott? Nothing concrete, obviously, just that feeling you get when things feel a bit uncertain. Some departments seem to be consolidating projects, and there's been talk about 'streamlining operations.' Could just be standard business optimization, but coupled with the general market slowdown, it's making me a little antsy. Has anyone's leadership team been more direct about future plans, or is it all this 'we're constantly evaluating' type of corporate speak? Just trying to gauge the general sentiment out there. Feels like a lot of us are holding our breath a bit.
Anyone else notice a hiring freeze at Marriott?
Been trying to apply internally for a few roles over the past month, and it feels like everything is just… sitting there. No movement, no updates. Saw a few external postings disappear too, which is weird. Usually, there's at least some buzz or a recruiter reaching out, even if it's a no. Just crickets. My manager mentioned some budget reviews are happening, but that's pretty standard, right? Wondering if anyone else in the operations or corporate side is seeing the same thing? Is this a precursor to something bigger, or just a seasonal slowdown? My team's workload is definitely picking up, so it's getting a bit stressful trying to cover gaps. Curious to hear if others are experiencing this silence across different departments.
Marriott PTO Policy Changes?
Has anyone else seen any rumblings or actual communications about potential changes to our PTO policy at Marriott? My manager was a bit vague in a recent team meeting, mentioning 'optimizations' and 'streamlining benefits.' Honestly, it sounded like corporate speak for 'we're taking something away.' I'm trying to figure out if this is something widespread or just a specific region/department issue. I've checked the internal portal and haven't found anything concrete. Feels like they're trying to slip it in quietly. Anyone have actual info or confirmation on this?
Marriott Internal Mobility - Slowing Down?
Hey everyone, I've been trying to move internally at Marriott for a few months now and it feels like things have really ground to a halt. Used to be, you'd see new postings pop up regularly and hear back within a few weeks. Now, it feels like roles are staying open for ages, and the silence after applying is deafening. Has anyone else in other departments noticed this? Is it just my team, or is there a broader hiring freeze or slowdown happening across the company? Trying to get a sense if I should be worried or just patient. The market outside feels pretty shaky too, so exploring internal options felt like the safest bet, but this is making me a little nervous.
Interviewing at Marriott - What's the market like now?
Hi all, I have an upcoming interview with Marriott for a [specific department, e.g., Revenue Management] position. I've seen some chatter about potential cost-saving measures across the company, and I'm wondering how that might affect the hiring landscape. Is the company still actively hiring for certain roles? Are they being more selective than usual? I want to go into this interview prepared and manage my expectations. If anyone has interviewed recently or has insight into the current hiring climate at Marriott, I'd really appreciate any advice or information you can share. Is it a good time to try and get in, or should I be cautious?
Marriott - Anyone else feeling the pinch?
Hey everyone, just wanted to see if I'm alone in this. Been with Marriott for a few years now, pretty stable role. Lately, though, things just feel…different. Budgets seem tighter, projects are getting scaled back, and there's a general sense of unease around the office. Haven't heard any official word about layoffs, but the vibe is definitely there. My manager is being pretty cagey when I ask about future planning. Is anyone else in a similar boat? Feeling like things are being restructured or consolidated behind the scenes? Curious to hear if others are seeing similar trends, especially in corporate roles, but open to hearing from property level too. Trying not to panic, but it's hard not to when you see the writing on the wall.
