There was some trepidation as Ultimate and Kronos merged to make UKG, but all of those fears have been unfounded and this company is, if anything, more committed to putting people first. None of my friends have had the kind of experience I have had the last 8 months with a caring, compassionate employer. What's more, they have made it clear that taking care of our families first is the number one priority and have provided ample time to help out as needs at home have increased, including providing resources to give kids at home camp experiences and craft supplies.

There has been clear communication every step of the way during these scary times, so I've never had to worry about my personal finances.

Our approach to the pandemic was phenomenal. Great companies like Hilton show what greatness is in crisis. Equally significant was how leaders showed up during this year, enhancing their communications, showing support and empathy, not being shy of being vulnerable in front of others. Whether it was extending their Go Hilton eligibility and reservations that would normally be cancelled or maintaining their Honors program longer than normal, or accelerating the preferred treatment that long tenure Team Members get on their unvested equity - each decision was made to do the best company could to help people in crisis. Even in a year that our industry took an unprecedented hit from the pandemic and that we had to make some tough decisions about furloughing or letting go of some of our Team Members, all the actions were accompanied by tremendous hospitality, dignity and compassion. But this year really brought to forefront why Hilton is such a special place. I can list a lot of unique benefits that are offered by Hilton - Go Hilton travel program, ESPP, Back up care, mental wellness resources and so on.
