Peachtree-Group

In my observation, the company appears to prioritize expanding its portfolio with smaller hotels, focusing less on the integration of these establishments and operational efficiency. The approach of applying the same operational model across diverse markets and locations, without adapting to local nuances, contributes to a bureaucratic and cumbersome process. There seems to be an extensive decision-making hierarchy within the executive committee, requiring most matters to be routed through the president.

One notable challenge is the timeliness of responses from the president, causing delays in addressing concerns at the hotel level. This delay can create perceptions of incompetence among associates and customers. While the president is not disrespectful, the management style, characterized by a condescending demeanor and fear-based motivation, may contribute to an uncomfortable work environment.

The organizational structure appears disorganized, with promised support not always translating into practical assistance or guidance. Decision-making authority, ostensibly delegated to hotel leaders, is subject to approval from a sizable committee and the president, limiting the autonomy of general managers. This process, combined with public criticism from the president, can contribute to a challenging work environment for hotel managers.

Regrettably, since I departed from the hotel, I have observed a downturn in its performance, marked by high turnover rates and a decline in key performance indicators. These challenges suggest a need for a more streamlined and collaborative approach to enhance operational efficiency and employee satisfaction.

What is the best part of working at the company?
Not a people culture. Pretend to be one but it’s far from it. No PTO paid upon departure. Very bad health ins, and 401k after one year. Tells a lot about their culture. To be noticed for promotion, you have to play office politics and gossip culture is a must. Few good people in upper management but they have to go with the flow to maintain their job. 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
That they don’t consider one’s personal time or life. You are working all week whenever they ask for a report, it’s needs to be done even on your personal time. Too many conference calls for silly reasons for corporate people who wants to show they are doing something. In fact, it’s all waste of time.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Toxic to say the least. No care about their people. They make big projects and donate money but no actual care for their people. They won’t invest in your growth and if anyone under performs, you are out in a jiffy.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Lots of conference calls that has no actual substance. Lots of reports that can be avoided or handled by accounting so it give more focus into operations. Too many demands and deadline that needs to be met regardless of what is happening on the ground. They say you can get help, but not true.

Peachtree has a well-developed culture as well as core values that made it a pleasure to work with them. The leadership of the company is very hands-on and supportive, and requires a lot of effort from their employees and managers. As a relatively new company, they are constantly improving and adding administrive support at the corporate level. While it might be possible to work a 40-hour work week as a manager, it is not likely. Plan on about 50-hour weeks most of the time, but that also seriously depends on the competency of those working under you. Even with the sometimes longs hours, be assured that hard work is rewarded. Peachtree always tries to promote from within, and are always appreciative of their dedicated employees. Because the company itself is so well run, there are always resources/budget to have the supplies you need/want when you need/want them. They are very focused on motiving team members as well. Overall a wonderful company.

Peachtree is a good company that just loves reports and repetition.  The former President of the company loved to talk culture but didn't walk the talk.  I enjoyed my time with the company and felt challenged at times (which was good) and stressed with the continuous reports and meetings that were redundant and time consuming.  The annual budget process took over 12 weeks from start to finish and was probably submitted 5-6 times during that process.  Would I cross that bridge again if the opportunity presented itself, I'd like to see if things have become better and if so, then yes.  If they're still repetitious, probably not.  In today's envrionment, its tough enough already to do the job we are expected to do with the labor market being what it is.


They talk a good game about being people-focused, but they're really not. They keep asking for more and more while giving very little support, help, or understanding in return.

It feels like you can't win. Ask for help and you're seen as weak. Do everything yourself and you're called a perfectionist. They tell you not to work every day, but at the same time expect you to be available whenever they need something, basically 24/7.

What they don't seem to understand is that their employees are people with lives, families, and responsibilities outside of work. It's hard to feel valued when the expectations keep growing but the support never does.

The amount of travel. Home is where your suitcase is. Hard to do that and have work/life balance. 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Wonderful. President drives a great cultural environment. Very people first mentality.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Each day was different depending on hotel results, takeovers or meetings.

I’m a very human centric, warm and solution based individual so I enjoyed my everyday task at that were my responsibility. I learned never to over extended myself in hopes of growth within the company it only backfires. The hardest part was maneuvering through the antics of one person in management in particular. My most enjoyable part would be getting to know and connect with my coeworkers and guest.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Spending time with guests, working with the team, inspecting the hotel and completing paperwork, accounting, payroll, forecasting, ordering supplies etc.

They only promote their friends. If you're Latino or even if you have the experience or the requirements, you know you'll never have a corporate position. They do not run with the current market salaries, they will always be below, they demand a lot of work and tasks from employees for little money. The environment is toxic, and if you talk to HR, you know you'll lose your job. It's as if they like their upper management to be toxic.

After I interviewed I was very excited to start work. Training was about two week of me working 5:00 AM- 1:00 PM. I was taught how to set up, cook, and clean the breakfast area. Main concern was that food was not being properly refrigerated. My co-worker who was older seemed very distracted when she would talk to guest and would leave a lot of her work unfinished. Management is nice but could listen more to concerns being brought up.
