Pros

You get some property managment experience. If you are an outdoor person, you get to spend time outside. You get an onsite apartment if you are a GM. Discounts on storage, if you need it.

Cons

-You are going to work 3 weekends a month minimum. -You can work for weeks at a time with a day off. -Half an hours lunchs. -Very low pay (especially if you are a GM - see "free apartment"). Nothing you can make a living off of. -Little room for growth. -No matter what you are told, as a Manager, you are nothing more than a cashier for the property. Every decision is left for the DM and GM. -They have a recognition program called WOW. But it doesn't cut it. Your work will rarely get recognized. -Upper management is completely out of touch. You don't get much direction from them and will get undermined on decisions regarding your property. -It can get intensely boring. You will be doing the exact same thing day in and day out. -I felt that we could have been a lot more honest about our products and services to our customers. - You get sick and vacation time but they are very hard to use. -Unprofessionalism ran rampamt in the workplace. You never knew what you were going to walk into every morning.

Pros

Good parking and free bagels.

Cons

Senior leadership can create a difficult work environment for employees who challenge decisions or fall out of favor. Rather than encouraging healthy debate, dissenting viewpoints may be marginalized, making it difficult to succeed. Women may perceive unequal treatment and fewer opportunities to influence key decisions compared with their male counterparts. The culture can feel outdated in this respect. Frequent turnover among HR leaders has resulted in shifting priorities and inconsistent execution. Career paths and development plans are often communicated but not consistently followed through, leaving employees uncertain about advancement opportunities.
