There’s no better feeling for HR pros than seeing the success of a well-used and well-liked employee program. No better feeling, indeed, except when the program also benefits your company's bottom line.

That’s the case for Hilton’s employee travel program. The perk, called Go Hilton, is a worker favorite, and brings in millions of dollars in revenue each year.

Using Go Hilton, employees and their friends and family members can stay at a Hilton property for steeply discounted rates. Team member rates include up to 40 nights per year, and the majority of hotels are priced at tiered flat rates, ranging from $40 to $80 per night. Friends and family rates grant 70 nights annually at 50% off the best available rate.

“Travel is core to what we do,” Lora Lawler, Hilton’s SVP of total rewards and HR technology, told HR Brew. “We have such a unique opportunity to use travel and our founding purpose to really engage our team members.”

Mentorship can be a career game-changer, leading to higher employee satisfaction and increased promotions.

However, women are less likely to receive mentorship than men, and it’s becoming a big problem for women in revenue-generating roles, such as marketing, sales, revenue operations, and customer success, a recent report warns.

Inadequate mentorship was the top challenge identified by women (44%) in revenue-generating roles, according to a survey of more than 750 women in such jobs from Women In Revenue, a nonprofit that advocates for the advancement of women in revenue-generating roles.
