Hilton Grand Vacations was certified as a Great Place to Work® in 2022. The award recognizes companies with excellent workplace cultures and Team Member experiences. Over 80% of Team Members reported they’re proud to work at HGV.

Here’s a round-up of why our Team Members love working for Hilton Grand Vacations.

 

HGV’s mission is to put people first, whether they’re Owners, Guests or Team Members. The key to success is centering them in every decision. HGV demonstrates a Team Member-first philosophy through a comprehensive suite of benefits, including day one health insurance coverage, parental leave and travel discounts.

Supporting Team Members empowers them personally and professionally. For Eric C., manager of financial planning, people are key to HGV’s positive work culture:

“The reason that I love working for Hilton Grand Vacations is chiefly because of the people I work with. I value the excellent Team Member perks and benefits and feel proud to say I work for Hilton Grand Vacations. Most importantly, the wonderful interactions with fellow Team Members have directed me to grow in my career and enrich my social awareness.”

One way HGV creates an inclusive environment where Team Members come together and support each other is through Team Member resource groups (TMRGs). Eric serves as co-chair of the African American TMRG, providing a platform for African American Team Members to connect and others to learn about diversity.

Abed E., general manager of SeaWorld® Orlando, a Hilton Grand Vacations Club, and co-chair of the multi-cultural TMRG, adds:

“Hilton Grand Vacations understands that cultural inclusion can improve our company and attract great talent. It’s not only about hiring people from all over; it’s important that everyone feels truly welcome and free to be themselves in the workplace.”

 

Hilton Grand Vacations prioritizes giving back to the community through corporate social responsibility (CSR). HGV Serves, one of those CSR programs, facilitates volunteer events for Team Members to work with outstanding nonprofits and make a difference.

Nicole H., assistant general manager in Las Vegas and co-chair of the women’s TMRG, values her career at HGV because of the emphasis on community service:

“For me, it is very important to be a part of a company that gives back to the community, so it was incredible to learn that Hilton Grand Vacations is already partnering with organizations in Las Vegas that are near and dear to my heart. This involvement is great for our team morale and creates a positive workplace atmosphere.”

DeBorah W., a women’s TMRG co-chair and HR business partner specialist, has enjoyed volunteering with HGV Serves.

“To help someone in their time of need is an amazing feeling — and it gives people in the community so much hope. I love working for a company that not only encourages — but also provides volunteer opportunities — specifically for its Team Members.”

HGV also works with Hawaiian organizations to practicE sustainable stewardship on the Hawaiian Islands and give back to the communities where Team Members live, work and vacation. These initiatives are part of “Malama Hawaii,” a sustainable travel movement based on the Hawaiian word malama, meaning “to care for.” Alyson M., an executive assistant in Honolulu, Hawaii, and co-chair of the Asia Pacific Islander TMRG, says:

“HGV has been true to its commitment to malama the Hawaiian Islands by protecting its land and culture. This initiative has been so effective because of our leaders, who are active contributors to nonprofit organizations across the Hawaiian Islands. They are great examples of ‘You Do, We Do, I Do,’ and carry it out on a daily basis.”

 

Not only can Team Members improve their communities, but they also receive support as they grow in their careers. Cheryl S., sales executive and co-chair of the different abilities TMRG, says:

“I am proud to be a part of this amazing brand that fosters growth and advancement opportunities by promoting from within.”

Many Team Members feel empowered in their positions as they rise in the ranks. Houria L. shares her career journey from front desk agent to club director in this article.

Professional development can also come from a better understanding of the company through all of its departments. Gregg S., director of safety and security and military TMRG co-chair, has grown as a professional by interacting across the company:

“I have grown so much at HGV being plugged into the bigger picture of vacation ownership and seeing the business through the lenses of other departments. This additional insight has given me experiences that have helped me grow into a versatile and knowledgeable professional who can contribute to any team’s needs.”

Annie R., senior manager of owner services, has worked at HGV for 10 years and still loves it:

“I used to drive past the HGV corporate office, and I knew, one day, I wanted to work for them as one of the leading global hospitality companies. To date, it has been the most rewarding experience and the greatest opportunity in my professional career. HGV has provided me financial stability, unparalleled travel and health benefits, and an opportunity to advance my education and professional career.”

From career development courses to team support, HGV provides employees with the tools and resources they need to reach their professional goals.

If you’re ready to start a successful career in the hospitality industry, now is the best time to join. In the past few years, HGV has become an industry-leader in vacation ownership, and there are plenty of opportunities to grow with the company.
