Pros
Marriott has a very positive reputation and they live up to that reputation. They have a strong focus on their employee's moral and well being. They are avid proponents of promoting from within and treating people well. Fantastic benefits including, of course, very cheap hotel rooms all over the world at any of Marriott's 20+ brands.
Cons
The primary 'downside' is the same downside you will find with other hospitality companies - pay. It is not great compared to other, equally demanding, professions. Also, depending on your position, you can work very long hours at very 'off' times. Keep in mind that hotels NEVER CLOSE therefore, someone is always working and that might be YOU.
