Pros

Huge company to transfer elsewhere.

Cons

There are several critical issues at play here. First, the executive management team appears to be significantly underqualified for their roles. As a result, many of the company’s strongest leaders are leaving, while less effective individuals remain due to personal relationships and history, rather than professional merit. While loyalty is important, it should not come at the expense of leadership quality. The position of the NJ Managing Director is particularly concerning, as it is difficult to understand how someone with such limited qualifications and experience has risen to this level. Additionally, the manner in which senior leaders communicate with employees is often unprofessional and unacceptable, undermining morale and respect. The Regional Manager overseeing the Yonkers community, in particular, has created a toxic environment by bullying his managers, yet continues to face no repercussions for this behavior. Furthermore, the retention of ineffective managers—those who lack the necessary skills to lead and develop their teams—continues to be a significant hindrance to the company’s growth. If the current executive team remains in place, it is likely that the company will continue to lose valuable management talent, one deal at a time. Immediate attention to these issues is critical for the organization’s long-term success.

Pros

Pay with housing discounts tend to be better than competition

Cons

Severe negatives if you plan on taking any type of leave of absence. While they are required to allow the leave, (my experience) has been that if retaliatory since it adds additional work load to those in your group (your boss). I’ve experienced this personally, and have seen it with other managers in my group. You will start to receive write ups that you never had before, micro managed, and/or fired after such things. I went from discussing promotions before my leave started to becoming ineligible for rehire after taking state protected LOA.
