Pros

The casual dress attire everyday.

Cons

Horrible management, especially in accounting. The CAO does not take responsibility for her department’s actions and points fingers and makes excuses. This place is the epitome of cronyism and nepotism.

Pros

Two weeks paid vacation, summer party, small bonuses for performance.

Cons

This company takes retaliation after employees complained to HR and place you on step one of three into termination. They will make your life hell and write you up until you live on your own. Or at the end will come and tell you to resign because you don't want a termination on your record. Bottom line If they terminated you then you have the right to UNEMPLOYMENT BENEFITS but Lyon Does not want you to get this money. Lyon wants you to leave without money. After a big celebration for the 25th Anniversary and crowned as a princess with a crystal crown included a long time untouchable VP was later disposed. An she was the queen of queens. Then guess what would happen to YOU!!!

Thank you for your candid feedback and we regret that Lyon did not meet your employment expectations. We do not tolerate retaliation in the workplace and we are diligent in maintaining an open and transparent work environment. We do our best to maintain a high-performing culture and we are very proactive in managing performance among our team members. We do not contest any of our former employees' unemployment claims and we have the records to support this statement. If you feel that this was not the case for you, please give us an opportunity to help you claim your unemployment benefits.

Pros

They updated from Yardi to Realpage which as good. Lots of modern procedures and software which makes alot of things easier.

Cons

Nepotism. The upper management have created a culture of sycophants. You don't get anywhere unless they like you. You don't even need to have the relevant experience for the position, If they like you then you're moving up. Everyone knows this which is why the company has become a horrible place to work. They do sham interviews so they have an appearance of fairness but they already know who is going to get the promotion. The culture has deteriorated immensely. Also, sell sell sell! They build nice properties in horrible locations and then are shocked when they don't get the rents they want. But instead of realizing this they blame the on-site staff and fire or transfer them thinking this will help. (Hint)- it doesn't. So when that doesn't work they sell. They are selling everything. I wouldn't be surprised if the nice property they built in the most awful spot in Placentia will sell next. 1 last thing- The benefits are horrible. Don't work here. There are way better places to work.
