Pros

I LOVE VENTERRA! I have only been with the company a short time, BUT I never thought a company could be so united! They treat their employees like individuals and not just a number. They value employee feedback and your voice is always heard, to the point where you are eligible for cash rewards for sharing bright ideas that can make the company better. Their core values are unheard of in this industry and really make them shine as a top rated company to work for, as well as makes their properties a joy to call home. Senior management is beyond experienced and have a vast amount of knowledge to share and assist those working under them.

Cons

They expect 150% from you and they are willing to help you in any way possible to get you there. All the tools are given to you to better yourself as a professional in the Multi Family Housing industry and Venterra's drive to give nothing but excellence to their customers reflects in the training of their employees.

Thanks for your review! It's awesome to read that your short time on the team has been so positive so far. It sounds like you have experienced a lot of the things that we feel make us stand out from the crowd already, which is great. We'll keep on working to improve, but if you do have any suggestions for us along the way, please be sure to speak up. Thank you again for taking the time to share your thoughts!

Pros

Everybody is super helpful and almost excited to work. Leasing for the past 6 months or so, no desire to go to a different company

Cons

Commissions/bonuses/hourly pay less than what most other companies pay. I guess their thinking is, they have so many other ways to "win" a small amount of extra money each month- you should work for it

Thanks so much for taking the time to provide your review. It's great reading about your first months with us being a positive experience and are looking forward to years to come with you on the team! While we definitely feel like our culture and employee perks separate us from a lot of other companies in the industry, we also know that fair compensation is a huge part of the overall employee experience. Although we determine pay by looking at industry benchmarks and adjusting accordingly, there are still some times when we might not be offering an amount that is inline with employee expectations. We'll definitely be passing your comments along, but know you don't have to wait until your quarterly evaluation to speak up if you feel like we should be looking a little closer at your specific situation. Thank you again!

Pros

The BIGGEST pro to me is that my co-workers care for me.... Last month I was moving, and as a single mom I was very stressed out dealing with this alone. With the power of teamwork, secret service skills and true genuine care for me...my co-workers chipped in and hired a cleaning company to come clean my old apartment I was living in! All of this was done secretly and was such a complete surprise to me and nicest act of kindness. It was the nicest thing to do for me at this moment in time, as I was seriously dreading the thought of moving all day just to turn around and clean my old place all night. It was almost as if they tapped into my heart and soul and figured out how they could make my day better (Venterra reference). I was completely shocked by their compassion, concern, care and team effort with pulling it off. I feel so lucky to work with such a great group of people and company, and without a doubt I know they truly care about me. In my opinion, feeling appreciated, respected and loved is very rare to come across in the work field and sometimes let alone in life.

Cons

Would love better health care benefits and more competitive compensation.

Thanks for sharing your review and that AWESOME story! We couldn't have the culture we have at Venterra if it wasn't for amazing people like the ones on your team. Having such a great group of employees also means we've got an obligation to give them the experience they deserve from us, as well. While we strive to do this on the benefits and compensation front by looking at benchmarks and offerings of competitors within the industry, there are definitely times where employee expectations might not necessarily be in line with what we're offering. With this in mind, we'll definitely pass along your comments along and want to encourage you to have a conversation with your manager if you feel like we might need to look a little closer at your specific case. Thank you again for sharing your experiences!
