Smaller company that treat each other like family. Commissions are way better than comps.

Pros

- The people you meet at Lyon are some of the best I've had the pleasure to work with and know in my professional career. We had a lot of people who come from outside the industry and Lyon does a great job with the transition. I have learned so much from my coworkers and the biggest thing is to just ask and they will help. - Exposure to many different types of large multifamily communities and regions. In my time here, I worked at over 10 communities which provides a breadth of knowledge of regions, layouts, and markets. - Growing company so there will be room for advancement if you are willing to move around to grow your career.

Cons

- Base Pay leaves much to be desired. The commission structure started in 2020 definitely gave a large bump over the previous structure but without a consistent influx of traffic for tours, the leasing staff is reduced to a front of house hourly customer service job. - At times it felt like the bottom line was more important than the success of the team at the property. Sticking to the bottom line meant the goals set for the teams and bonuses attached to those goals were never going to be met.

Great Company Culture but Upper Management is very Disconnected

Pros

Colleagues are fantastic and everyone I have worked with is absolutely amazing. There really is a good company culture here within the front facing property level employees and HR / Training.

Cons

Upper management seems very disconnected from the actual issues properties may have, choosing to only look at the numbers rather than the reasons behind them. They seem keen on placing blame on the people rather than the actual issues.
