Pros

Some of the people that work there are nice.

Cons

This company is very cheap with their resources starting at the top and trickling down to their Property Managers. Compensation of expenses policy were changed verbally and not in writing by upper manager who wanted us to come out of pocket and use our own credit cards for certain expenses that the company should cover. Company seems to be clueless about this. Also, they are reluctant to put most “policy changes” in writing. So they say one thing and do another. Accounting department takes forever to reimburse expense reports and to pay vendors. Upper management sides with building owners and their poor treatment of onsite property managers, even when their employees suffer because of it. Very BAD place to be a property manager. With the exception of a few people, almost all managers, HR staff and upper management are overweight as the stress of the job causes most to overeat. Not a pretty overall image for anyone who prides themselves in looking good and likes to keep fit. “Lead by example” does not apply here from the top working its way down.

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.
