Pros

The recruiters are nice. They also treat you really well during your first week of training.

Cons

Fogelman pays the BARE MINIMUM per lease. Literally any other property management company pays more. Several employees have complained about this, and eventually quit once they realized upper management didn't care. Once you begin working in the leasing office, you'll quickly see how poorly the attitudes of the current staff are. There is zero work/life balance, because when you finally think you'll have a day off, they will call you in because someone else quit. All of the properties have terrible reviews online, and after taking the time to read them... they were right! I couldn't work for a company that didn't care about it's employees or residents. I resigned before I even had another job lined up. I'm embarrassed to tell my property management friends I worked here.

Pros

Most of the people at the executive level and corporate office are “good”, well-intentioned folks. Pay is fair.

Cons

There is a disconnect between corporate and the rank-and-file (onsite) employees. Onsite employees receive zero input on decisions that affect them. It feels like every new blanket policy is designed by people who haven’t been onsite for years (or left it for a reason!) and the policies solve an imaginary problem or small problem specific to only a few properties, which results in ALL onsite employees being burdened with more meaningless tasks to do. A prime example is the new maintenance training modules that force well-qualified maintenance guys to waste hours completing a mandatory course on how to use a multi-meter, when they already know how to use one and have a backlog of 70 service requests to complete. On top of that, Fogelman’s software and web-based tools do the opposite of what technology is supposed to do: They make administrative tasks longer and the onsite teams less productive.
