Pros

Great coworkers and time off policy

Cons

Terrible leadership Directors and above. The company continues to lay people off with no acknowledgment. Nobody knows who's next and lives in fear for their jobs to the point where I've heard coworkers expressing their fear of going on calls with their managers in case they're next (on the chopping block). Meanwhile on all-hands calls the executive team continues to chant their delusions of how great they are, and how well the company is doing without knowing that most people now get on those calls without cameras on in comparison to when I started 2.5 years ago. Honestly if anyone is reading this that wants to a job here, run and don't look back. Employees are tired, unmotivated and so many people are resigning in addition to the layoffs. It's kinda nuts to think about how much has changed for the worse. When I started, for a good year I couldn't stop talking about AvantStay and how much I loved working here. Now I cringe when people ask about my job that I used to brag about because I absolutely do not feel that way anymore. Shouldn't I be telling HR about this? In a perfect world yeah, but you have all the answers you need when your HRBPs and HR employees are resigning. Even if I did tell them the Directors and VPs would probably laugh it off and not take the concerns seriously. It's always something, some excuse that their employee's opinions aren't valid.

Pros

I’ve been with the company since I started

Cons

Houses need more attention given to them as a maintenance person before I used to walk the houses when guest checked out and we stayed on top of the houses a little more than than we do now. Seems like some people just walk through the house and lock it up and go home. Meanwhile there’s faucets loose doorhandles loose stuff falling apart and the AAs are not catching this on the other side, we have work orders that are not getting done properly. The first time I’ve never been a vendor and had a company make up my hourly rate and being on call I’m waiting for work and maybe only getting a job a day doesn’t really pay our bills as maintenance people because we have to keep up on insurance not only that but gasoline because we’ll go to some of the houses 2 to 3 times a day because of the way, the work orders come in we could’ve already been at a house and then we’re getting sent back to the house for another case to do
