Marriott Slashes 800 Corporate Jobs, Part of 2024 Efficiency Push
What’s going on at Marriott?
Marriott International (Marriott) has eliminated more than 800 corporate positions — calling it a much-needed “reorganization” of its global structure.
During the company’s third-quarter earnings call, CEO Anthony Capuano alluded to an “enterprise-wide process to enhance our effectiveness and efficiency.”
According to news outlets, including CNBC, the majority of the job cuts affect the “above property” level. Service levels at Marriott-branded hotels aren’t impacted.
