Recommendations & Advice

Would you recommend Whitbread plc to a friend?
Yes
Why?
From working in Premier, and I have noticed the difference between the hotels and the brand standards they hold, I have also stayed in a premier Inn when I go away it’s nice to see what other Premier inn staff alike and how do you get treated by then?
What tips or advice would you give to others applying to Whitbread plc?
I would say go in with a positive attitude don’t think the job is gonna be easy because it’s not but all staff members are friendly and welcoming. It’s not working for a big family. Everyone gets on with everybody matter where you’re from or culture
