Pros

This is a great role that provides security, benefits, and rent discount. A great stepping stone to help you figure out what you like and don't like. Not one day is like the other. Room for growth if you want to stay within the property and are friends with your boss.

Cons

Work-life balance is nonexistent. Pay should be way higher for all of the work that you do in a day. Leasing is the bottom of the totem pole. Overworked, underpaid, and not valued. Revolving door.

Pros

I guess you could say, the commission is ok but that depends on the property and location. That is all

Cons

Underpaid, understaffed, overworked, lack of communication, passive aggressive regionals/ managers. Constant stress and reminders of everything you do wrong, but nothing when you're doing good. Must ask for PTO 30 days in advance. They only offer raises and free housing to their favorite employees, so there is no equality there either. For a director to want someone fired and other employees know about it. That's speaks highly of the professionalism, also they tend to bully the employees they DO NOT like until they have not option but to quit.

Pros

There aren't many pros of this company but those that can be looked at are: -Free BASIC health insurance for employee only -Decent housing discount -Ability to transfer as Greystar has properties worldwide

Cons

There are a lot more cons to this company that meets the eye. As the world's largest property management company the cons include: -Low pay -Unorganized -No training -Noncompliance -No appreciation for "Team Members" -No support -No communication unless negative I would have to say that the worst con of this company was their response to COVID-19. Their response for Team Members was for them to go out and risk their lives during a pandemic and lease out apartments at their regular pay. When asked at a virtual Townhall Meeting why he wasn't paying hazard pay to the employees his response was, "I don't have to". Now, not only were Team Members sacrificing their lives BUT they were losing pay as most wouldn't recieve their monthly bonuses as they weren't paying them out. Employees furloughed from their companies who would typically make $1,000 per month were now making about $3,000 per month due to the Government aide while NOT working while Greystar Team Members worked tirelessly for their Residents, clients, and prospects during this pandemic making basically nothing and struggling to pay their bills.
