Swearing is like a background noisyes all day long.Some people have been in the kitchen for decades, they just have coffees and breaks whole day. If you are new, just prepare to be bullied, that's the culture.

Pros

Eat whatever you want

Not fun at all

Night Auditor (Former Employee) - Paramatta NSW - 28 December 2022

what was talked about an interview was totally not applied or more opposite than what was delivered when on the floor , no proper training,orientation or site tour, not much access to any of the facilities and on the system in order to do your work, Uniform was delivered after 2.5 mnths of work and yet they keep picking on professional dress code even though they didn't provide uniforms or decent paycheck...pathetic

Pros

free parking

Cons

no meal, payless

Novotel has potential to be great

Strong Customer Service (Former Employee) - Rooty Hill NSW - 14 December 2019

Working in housekeeping is an eye opening experience, and the job can be completed within set timeframes. sadly the work culture at the time was not one of cohesian or stability. Management of the team was lacking and envolved many school yeard politics.
