Used to be the best in their class....but became too greedy and lost their culture.

Pros

Great benefits! Great technology! Pretty okay training. Access to resources to help you perform well.

Cons

The company has changed over the years. They have gone from being customer focused and first to being money driven and its sad. They overwork their employees and fire them over personal reasons and not performance reasons. Managers fear their supervisors and it trickles down. They used to tell you its okay to make a mistake because you learn from it. Now its just become a hostile and unhealthy environment to work in due to over analyzing yourself to make sure that upper management will approve. They are the best property management company, but at what cost are they willing to take. They've lost a number of long term employees. The employees used to love coming to work for Camden because they had great values and put their employees first and cared about the residents. Not any more.

Pros

On boarding is exciting. You feel great to be a part of a different type of organization. An organization that cares.

Cons

After onboarding you realize you’ve been blown a bunch of smoke. The culture died years ago and the proof is in the voluntary 40+ % of the company that turned over in the last 10 months. Many of these were long before the vaccine mandate. All this company cares about is money, nickel and diming customers, reputation, and their stock price. You will feel pressured early on in your employment and every time a Forbes survey comes out to share about the great and unique culture . (Email from CEOs/senior leaders on how important this is for our company). You will be told how much tenure is in this company. A lot of tenured employees chose to leave and the ones left will also tell you things aren’t the way they used to be. Upper management will ask you to spend your own money to save on expenses.. Micromanagement thrives here. You cannot speak up unless you want to be barred from any forward movement and I’ve seen many people blocked from great opportunities. If you’re looking to interview ask these questions and pay attention to the answers. - what did layoffs look like during covid? - why did 40% of the company leave Camden? - what are things that were done for employees and residents that don’t happen anymore and has the company benefited financially from the lack of those events. -what did Camden do for on-site employees during the pandemic in terms of labor? I’ll answer this one. Instead of closing offices for safety at the height of the pandemic they made us open our doors and extend working hours

Thank you for taking time to share your feedback and experience. Since the start of the pandemic, Camden has not laid off any employees, distributed thank you and out performance bonuses to our team members, funded resident and employee relief funds to assist with unforeseen expenses, and taken what we feel are reasonable steps to protect our team members, customers, and communities from Sars-COV-2 (COVID-19) infection. While many employees have shared their appreciation for these measures, we are sorry to hear you do not feel this way. We also appreciate you sharing comments on the other topics and are always striving to improve wherever possible. We take your feedback quite seriously and assure you we care deeply about our employees, current, former and future. I’d love to hear more about your specific experiences and encourage you to reach out using EmployeeRelations@camdenliving.com.

HR is worthless

Pros

Uniforms make mornings easier. Usually have a decent product.

Cons

Mid managers are laughable. Some brown-nose so much that it is sickening. Upper management tries too hard to be friendly and act as though they care when in fact they don't care abut you at all. Again, mid managers can make or break someone becuse they are too immature to know how to handle a situation. That's where HR comes in. They will side with whome ever is more popular. If they don't know you, too bad. You loose! Pitiful. The company promises raises and 0i still haven't gotten mine!
