Pros

They offer insurance. Some intro training.

Cons

You will work 50-60 hours a week. They promise a lot to get you on board. It sounds great in theory. The workload is not healthy for anyone on the accountant level. The irony of the “remote” flexibility they openly promote is there is none, unless you are in upper management. The accountants have so many menial tasks it is hard to present quality work when pulled 50 different directions. Never thought I would be worried about pdf file labels with 6+ properties, yet that is what happens. This job is great for a new grad wanting to get experience, new parent wanting flexibility but your average accountant, look elsewhere.

Pros

It's great to be able to work from home

Cons

Greystar expects too much. Workload is so heavy because they gave the accountants specialists in India. Most of these specialists create additional work rather than easing the workload as intended. Greystar doesn't address these issues because they don't want to hear how their outsourcing isn't working.

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.
