As with all companies they have their pros & cons
Pros
- My personal supervisor is amazing and you feel like they have your best interests in mind - Fairly comparable pay and benefits with other companies in the area - Easy to get in touch with others within the company whether it be supervisors or people at the corporate offices who you don't normally interact with - During the entirety of the Covid shutdowns across the country they kept EVERYONE up to date with monthly Zoom calls and paid everyone pay when doors had to be closed and we were not working remotely - Usually have one or two events per year to get everyone together, which is nice when you're on-site and don't usually interact with other property teams
Cons
- Vacation time accrual is based on number of years with the company which I think is an odd spread (0-5yrs; 5-15 yrs; 15+ yrs) ... 5 years is a long time to be at a company with only earning up to 80 hrs of vacation time in my opinion - Some people are still in positions that a lot of people would agree are holding the company back or not doing the best job but nothing is done about it, not sure where that leadership failure lies, but there are a few problems that only certain teams and managers are privy to and I have seen no change - In certain areas of budget I feel they are little stingy, especially for properties that truly need it - this typically comes back onto the onsite team with people saying that we're cheap, don't want to spend money when the apartment needs it or that we nickel and dime people for nothing. Just a small annoyance when you have to argue with people for something you don't necessarily agree with (part of the job though) ..... Obviously I understand from a business standpoint you want to stay in the green and why spend more when the property is not struggling but I feel that they should expand budgets in certain areas and work on making their current portfolio of properties even better/more desirable to keep up with competition
