Upper management will lie to your face and outsource your department in a heartbeat to maintain their bonus thresholds.

FirstKey Homes Response

Thank you for taking the time to write this review and I am sorry that was how you felt tough decisions were made. With interest rates directly affecting our business and requiring us to become lean to maximize return to our investors, our leadership has had to make some very difficult decisions over the last year. We value and appreciate the contributions of our team members more than you know. Thank you for being such a valued member over 4 years of service.
