Pros

* Decent benefits relative to position. * Maintenance staff was overall helpful and nice.

Cons

* Was told there were opportunities for paid-overtime only to be later told there would no longer be paid-overtime, no exceptions. * Told there would be on average, high commissions only to find that figure was wildly exaggerated. * No employee rental discount even though every other property management company has one. * No career progression/promotion from within as long-time employees were pushed aside in favor of corporate employees transferred from out of state. * Learned temps received better pay and benefits than full-time Mill Creek employees. * High turnover rate, was the fourth person within a year to have the position. Due to low compensation, lack of career prospects and passive-aggressive management. * Most unprofessional 2-week notice/exit process I have ever experienced. Publically insulated, stripped of employee access before officially leaving, intentionally given all of the dirty/difficult work, had to fight for my bonuses and was nearly blocked from submitting hours, had my personal privacy and effects violated.

Pros

Amazing management from the Millcreek team. They are fantastic when it comes to training their leasing professionals, and you have the opportunity for growth if you wish to pursue property management eventually.

Cons

The company is quite small compared to larger property management companies. Not necessarily a con but keep that in mind

Pros

Frontline staff are reliable and helpful

Cons

There is a major gap between the company’s focus on numbers and the actual well-being of the frontline staff. Employees are facing heavy financial and emotional stress due to low pay, unclear communication, and rigid housing policies. * Management Disconnect: Leadership focuses heavily on meeting targets but seems to overlook employee morale, stress levels, and retention. * Unclear Communication: Directions coming from regional and upper management are often muddy and inconsistent, making frontline work harder than it needs to be. * Wages vs. Cost of Living: Full-time employees working 40+ hours a week are struggling to make ends meet, which should not happen with a standard full-time schedule. * Onsite Housing and Late Fees: There is a clear issue when employees cannot afford to rent the very properties they work in. Charging struggling onsite staff a $200 late fee—instead of working with them on a manageable payment plan—creates an unfair financial cycle and damages company loyalty.
