Pros

Company will give a great pay.

Cons

Too desperate to recruit people/managers that are not qualified to be a manager. The lack of proper training and guidance has been evident, and it has been a frustrating and disheartening experience. The hiring of inexperienced managers and their inability to effectively lead and support their team has led to a chaotic and unproductive work environment.

Cardinal Group Companies Response

Being a newly invigorated industry with so many moving parts and expectation definitely presents a challenge to those who choose it as a career. While you make good points here, it's disheartening to learn that the efforts to learn and pivot by others who choose the industry didn't live up to your expectations.

Pros

I feel really lucky to have found my role at Cardinal Group. I love the paths I have taken, the people I interact with (internally and externally). I am glad to see how we grow, how we change when needed, and keep moving forward every day.

Cons

Sometimes we do too many new initiatives at a time. It would be nice to not roll so many new things out all at once and let things stick first (if possible) before going to the next new thing.

Cardinal Group Companies Response

We love that you love what you do! It's a challenging time in business and the world alike. It's clear from your words that you are someone who see's that challenge and takes it on head first. Thank you for bringing all of who you are to bear in the work you are doing.

Pros

The people you work with have a good mindset but lack of proper management to be better.

Cons

The parent company of The Glen thinks this is an entry-level community

Cardinal Group Companies Response

3rd party management can be a challenge when considering the needs of the teams and residents alike. I'm hoping you can lend your voice in future roles to help in forming what should be vs what is.
