Hotel giant Hilton, which rises to the top spot after coming in second in 2023, aspires to reach gender parity in global leadership roles and 25% ethnic diversity in U.S. leadership positions by 2027. Equitable learning and employee training are key internal goals, too: Hilton says it’s committed to creating 5 million learning and career growth opportunities for team members and communities, with a focus on underrepresented groups, by 2030. For Hilton staff, both corporate and franchised, the company’s network of resorts and hotels is a big benefit; employees and their loved ones can enjoy deeply discounted stays at almost any of Hilton’s worldwide properties. The company also chooses a small number of workers each year for its Thrive Sabbatical and Thrive Reset programs, which offer up to $5,000 and a month of PTO to recharge and pursue passions outside the office.

A key priority has been supporting the mental health of its employees: In the past year, Hilton started offering free counseling to staff and access to an internal hub with a variety of mental health resources meant for engaging in and normalizing mental health conversations. With “Hilton Flex,” team members get more flexibility over when they work, which department they work in, and even how often they’re paid, a program that Hilton reports has helped improve retention.

I can confidently share my ideas, and they are taken seriously, even as an hourly employee. I have learned so much about sales, revenue, front office, food and beverage, and operations in my four years here, and I worked in four other hotels that never provided nearly as much learning experience as I've received here.

It really removes the "mom guilt" aspect of being a working mom when I know that the people I work with value my life outside of work too, and allow me time and space to be both a professional and a mom.”

They celebrate and appreciate that each of us have our own unique personality and those differences don't make us 'bad' or 'outcasts.' I love it here. Also, whenever I have asked to learn something new and get more responsibilities, I have always been encouraged and supported by management”

Hospitality chain Hilton was among the hardest hit in the earliest days of the pandemic, as travel ground to a halt. The company furloughed about 45,000 members of its workforce and laid off 20% of its corporate staff. But through those tough decisions, the company treated its workers with “dignity and compassion,” says one employee, by connecting former Hilton staff to short-term jobs new to the pandemic economy and by extending hotel rewards benefits like the Hilton Honors program and eligibility for the chain’s team member travel program beyond the date when a departing worker would usually lose them. “Each decision was made to do the best the company could to help people in crisis,” the employee says.

The career ladder here looks like the elevator from Willy Wonka with up, down, diagonal and sideways movements encouraged to put employees in a place to be both successful and happy. Furthermore, the company thinks beyond job responsibilities and traditional compensation to provide benefits that set employees up for success in their personal lives (great healthcare, travel and PTO benefits). I know that when I feel taken care of personally, I perform better professionally, and I feel that Hilton understands and delivers on that. Most of all, I know they aren't sitting back on what they have provided so far. They are always re-evaluating as a company and giving managers the power to improve both the professional and personal lives of the employees."
