Hello all, my first post. Anyone else feel like their general manager won't promote them because they're afraid you'll make them look bad. Like they don't do their job well enough so you'll outshine them? Do you stay? Leave? Try to build the relationship? It's been a year. @Aimbridgehospitalityllc

I'm a big proponent of job hopping to get promotions. Sometimes you come across people who don't want to help you grow and no amount of company loyalty or overperformance is going to make them value you. There's no reason to hold yourself back, you should at least explore your options

From my personal experience, you have two types of bosses ones that want to help themselves grow, and the ones that are motivated for the whole group of people that work below them. It’s really hard to find the second one in corporate work environments. Hotels specifically I’ve personally found it’s very hard to move up because they form each position as is. Each hotel position unless already a manager is meant to be stationary

Obviously you know your boss better than I do so I can't really speak to their character, but some people really are just self-interested and aren't looking out for others. Sad, but true. If you already got the impression you got the most you can expect out of working there, then yes I suggest you consider leaving, preferably for a higher paying position elsewhere

Honestly that is just Aimbridge everyone at corporate level on daily basis tries to prove their worth, so they love giving GM busy work that they barely even use. As a GM I love when staff ask is there anything I can help with? Also actually look at your audit packs and learn the reports, offer to help with billing issues or review responses.

I feel like that’s why I was pushed out because I was making the changes the dc asst and the dc manager couldn’t make in the many years they’ve been there our OT was the lowest line outs were the lowest it’s ever been and they did something unlawful to get me out for making them look bad

Worked for for the aimbridge company many years ago. It's super hard to get promotions with them

If there is a case that we have to quarantine again. Do you all think it is possible for store associates to work remotely? If so, what are some ways this could work? I fear another pandemic or outbreak and so many people being out of work again. I can't even fathom those that had jobs in retail that had little to no choice to not be remote.
