Upper management has no clue

Area manager

Business Outlook

Pros

Amazing staff, travel and the relationships with owners

Cons

Upper management will say one thing and do another. The senior leadership are deceitful and can’t seem to balance a checkbook. Change of policies Ian’s procedures are seldomly trickled down to operations. The company is constantly laying off staff, hiding fees in owners statements, and expect operations to lie to owners.

AvantStay did undergo a series of layoffs and performance-based terminations at the end of 2022 and early 2023 in order to protect it from volatility in the macroeconomic environment, and ensure its long-term success. Terminations and layoffs are never easy and we understand that this time was unsettling for those impacted, however we are proud to report that through the incredible work of our team, we have transformed our platform, technology and operations, embedding scalable efficiencies across the board, returning the company to profitability and fortifying its long-term success.We have not conducted any layoffs for two consecutive quarters and are excited to continue to grow and develop our extraordinary team. AvantStay is not the same company it was 12 months ago, and we are proud of our ability to pivot and optimize our operations in order to build the best vacation rental company in the nation.

Get ready for lots and lots of overtime

Anonymous employee

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Every day is different. Lots of opportunities to learn things outside your assigned role.

Cons

No work-life balance; you're expected to stay at the office indefinitely and be on-call all weekend. Management can be extremely rude and demanding. Extremely high turn-over rate due to burnout.

Sorry to hear you feel that way - all our positive reviews are from actual employees and we have consistently scored in the top percentile for positive workplace culture. We constantly seek feedback from current employees and request exit interviews from all employees leaving the company - so it is a shame to receive this feedback for the first time now rather than giving us the opportunity to address any concerns.

Good pay and unlimited pto

Terrible work life balance and company is barely afloat, looks good from the outside but don’t let the bells and whistles fool you. This is a failing organization
