Great company to work for!

Assistant community manager

Pros

Excellent leadership throughout the company. Great benefits all around with random "Surprise and Delight" for employees and residents. During the pandemic, Sequoia has been providing lunch for ALL staff members in every location, every day! They've also added "Lunch is On Us" for the residents. How cool is that? They also have random "Rest and Relaxation" paid days off that they surprise all employees with. It feels good knowing that I am working for a company that truly cares about their employees and residents. After being with another great company (different industry) for many years, it was a difficult decision to leave. I am happy to say that coming on board with Sequoia was the right choice for me.

Cons

No cons for working here.

Hi! Thank you for leaving a review about Sequoia. I'm so glad you are having a positive experience thus far. Like everyone else, the pandemic has thrown all of us for a loop. As an essential business, it was important that we kept the people, our team members, front of mind in everything we did and continue to do. The rest and recharge day was implemented because we saw that more than ever, it was important that we all took a moment to breathe and refocus our energy on self care and caring for our family and the lunches were so that you didn't have to worry about where to go for lunch or packing lunch to come into work. As much as we can do to ease the burden for you and support you, we are going to do that. Thank you for choosing Sequoia. I'm so glad you feel it was a good choice for you. We are thankful you are here! -Enrica

Pros

It's rare to find a company that holds true to its values and puts its people first. Both as a resident and an employee I'd recommend Sequoia.

Cons

The training plans and onboarding program is very extensive and well thought out but sometimes there can be inconsistencies with implementing it.
