Pros

Venterra is a great company that promotes from within. They really are focused on how hard you work, and strive to promote from within. They have a great training program to help prepare you for the next step.

Cons

The benefits are great with Venterra. We are open more than any other Property Management Company out there for our customers. Most offices are open 9-7.

We're glad your five years with us have been happy ones! Thanks for taking a moment to provide your feedback. It's great to hear that you've seen us living up to our Leader Promise to "invest in your professional development and strive to promote from within." Having this intention in mind is one thing. Seeing it first hand is another! It's also good to know that you enjoy the benefits that we offer as a company. While our communities closing at 7pm on some days is a great benefit to our current and future residents, we understand that it can be a sacrifice for our inside employees who work until this time. It's important for us to strike a good balance with this. If you ever feel that this balance should be looked at within your community please be sure to speak up to your Property Manager. Thank you again for taking the time to provide a review!

Pros

This is a company that seems to truly care about employee well-being. They have many programs to encourage , being an "active employee". Their customer service focus is great! As a leasing consultant we are the front line of the company so it is nice to know we have the ability to "make things right". They openly ask for your opinion AND give you the feeling that they are actually listening. I love my job and know that with hard work and an open mind I have opportunities to grow with this company! They have a lot of programs that give you opportunists to win/earn money, benefit package is excellent, as well as a discount on rent for any Venterra owned property.

Cons

Not many that I have ran into yet. Be prepared to work weekends all the time if you are a leasing consultant. Not a huge issue for myself just an FYI. But even the weekend shifts allow time to actually have a life.

These are great comments - thank you for taking the time to share them! It's wonderful that you can feel the employee empowerment that we strive for, appreciate our perks and our customer service oriented business model, and know that you've got room to take advantage of our Leader Promise to "strive to promote from within!" It sounds like a match that will result in a partnership for years to come! We definitely want to make sure that we are taking the time to celebrate the successes of our teams and team members. With such an amazing group of people it can sometimes be difficult to always give credit where it should be given, so please don't hesitate to speak up on behalf of yourself or a coworker so that we can make sure that everyone is feeling all the love that they deserve! Thank you again for providing your feedback!

Pros

I have been with Venterra for almost 2 years and have loved working for the company. I was new to property management when I started and fell in love with it. I love that we have an opportunity to WOW our residents. Each month, we have an allotted amount of money to do something special for a resident or residents that we see fit that particular month, whether it's someone who had an unfortunate situation come up or that we just wanted to surprise. That has been my favorite part of working for Venterra so far. I feel like an individual that the company cares about, and not just a number, as so many employers look at their employees. I base my life around integrity and would not be able to work for a company who didn't represent strong values and exemplify integrity in their policies. I think we have more than enough opportunities to extend our education and learn from others in the company. Richard, our COO is awesome and actually visits the communities enough so that employees actually get to know him. I think the long interview process shows that they really care about who they hire and about finding the right long term employees. Compensation is fair, although I do wish our raises were higher, but who doesn't want that? Overall, my experience has been very positive and I plan on staying with the company for a long time!

Cons

I work in one of the Nashville locations and I do wish there were more properties out here and room to grow with the company in Nashville.

Thanks for taking the time to provide a review! We're so glad to hear that your time with us has been so positive overall! The Wow program is definitely a favorite of many of our employees and it is a huge reason why we tend to have content residents. It's great that the same program that makes them happy makes you feel the same way! It's also fantastic hearing that you feel appreciated, have a set of values that's in line with ours, see the benefit in our training opportunities, our onsite visits, and our recruiting process. These are all initiatives that we take pride in, so if you have any suggestions to improve them even further, be sure to let us know. Nashville definitely is booming! Although it's hard to say what the future will hold in terms of where we will be growing next, having an attitude and a perspective that's in line with the direction we want to head is sure to take you far! Thank you again for your review! We're looking forward to many more years to come with you on the team!
