Working at HMSHost in Seatac, WA: 2 Employee Job Reviews by Real Employee working in Seatac, WA Area

"I have worked with this company for 26 years. Currently have a bounty on my head to fire for I question management abuse of authority. More into barking at their employees for frivolous things rather than overseeing their unit. We are constantly out of food items, for management does not do proper inventory review in the unit and just guesses the food orders at the computer. The unit I work in has not had a proper cleaning in over 3 years and the food walk in is a disaster with food boxes on the floor and not unorganized as hell. Management likes to delegate rather than hands-on do it their self. Much abuse of the manager title rather doing management duties. Too many manager click groups and hire and make ANYBODY a manager with no proper experience of F&B experience. I strongly suggest NOT to work for this company!!"
