Pros

- Co-workers (80+% of them) tend to care and are the sole reason people stick around here - Benefits Package is pretty good (gets better the longer you are with the company, cannot speak to 1-3 years with company).

Cons

- Promotions are not based on merit, they're more focused on saving money or getting a friend a job (sadly the norm for many companies). I have been asked to train people that got a promotion I applied for after not getting the job on more than one occasion. More times than I can count I have gone to help get a property caught up that I applied at and did not get the position. - Low Pay - Little/No Support - you are at the mercy of whoever your regional manager is. In my experience, I have had 2 out of 7 that were worth a darn. - General disconnect between corporate and property level employees. - Bad employees are left on teams far too long, everyone needs to be given multiple chances (I guess this is a pro if you like to get drunk/stoned on the job and screw around with residents or other employees).

Pros

They pay you well and give good benefits.

Cons

They will work you to the bone, abuse you emotionally, manipulate you, talk down on you, and throw you out the moment you aren’t taking any of it. They work you your normal hours and then 30-50 overtime hours in that same two weeks. They don’t care for their employees well being, only the results they get the client. Even if it’s at the expense of your health, safety, or mental status. Management is like a giant frat and sorority opened a business. You can’t ask for help they’ll retaliate, you can’t ask for relief or they’ll retaliate, you can’t have issues otherwise they’ll retaliate. Do not work here even for the money or benefits, they will work you to death and then prop your corpse up to work more. If you value your personal time, mental health, and over all well being. God forbid you want to leave your building and management doesn’t want you to, ask for a transfer and they will rain down write ups on you. You are owned by the client if you work for this company. Modern day indentured servitude. DO NOT WORK FOR THEM.
