Pros

There are some good people that work at the entry level.

Cons

I have worked in the corporate workplace for a good amount of time and multiple different companies. This company by far was my worst experience. The only thing that matters to them is what they can do to make the most money and the only people they care about are upper management. They don't care about good customer service or a quality product. They only care about going public and letting the upper management get rich from that. I was with the company from the beginning. I worked very hard, long hours and brought several great ideas to the table. My ideas were taken by management and used as their own. My hard work and long hours were taken for granite and I was demoted shortly after receiving a promotion. They will fire an employee if they mess up on their time card by a minute but management can have an inappropriate relationship with someone they directly supervise (against company policy) and it doesn't matter. An hourly employee is required to take PTO if they have to leave 15 minutes early but management can take multiple days off and not take any PTO. Upper management will throw anyone under the bus to save their own jobs. They make terrible business decisions such firing almost half the staff because they stopped buying homes and once those employees were gone, they decide to start buying homes again giving all current employees twice as much of a work load. I am a very happy, easy going person who loves life. This company made me a nervous, angry, bitter person who hated going to work. I kept thinking that it was a start up and things would eventually get better. However, in all the years, it only got worse. If you have a good work ethic and care about your job, then I would stay far away from this place. In my opinion, the good reviews were probably people that were paid off. I have never met anyone that worked for Invitation Homes and enjoyed their job. I would never suggest for anyone to work here.

Pros

Compensation. Bonuses. Holiday pay. Benefits. Team building days. office parties.

Cons

If you are unbothered and don't get stressed out easily - go for it. I could not. little training. quantity over quality. constant sense of urgency. never feeling accomplished or that tasks were completed. mostly dealing with angry residents. responsibilities plus the phone queue was unmanageable. one or the other please. constant policy changes and having to explain that to residents.
