Pros

The best reasons to work at Venterra Realty are great hours, opportunities, great working environment.

Cons

The downsides of working at Venterra Realty are when asked to come up with personal goals at the work place when you're trying to fulfill the goals for the company. Sometimes there is not enough time.

We appreciate you taking the time to share your experiences! It's great hearing that your time with us has been positive overall, and that you feel you're in a great working environment with growth opportunities! While our Better Living program is meant to improve the lives of our employees and their families by encouraging the creation of and working towards personal goals, achieving them alongside company goals can definitely prove challenging at times. We certainly don't want anyone trying to achieve so many goals that they are stressed as a result! And, of course, we only want you to aim to achieve goals that are realistic and personally important to you. The support that other employees can provide through the Better Living site might be a great place to turn for help setting the goals that matter most to you and creating realistic timelines for their completion. Thank you again for providing a review here!

Pros

- They provide great training for new employees. - Fun work environment. - Manager is easy to communicate with and shows care in the employees. - You get to wear many different hats as a leasing agent so there is always something to do besides working with prospects. - Promotions from within. - Big emphasis on great customer service and brand value. - Great benefits for full time employees

Cons

- You may be required to commute to different properties to fill in the office duties. Some of those commute drives can take up to an hour. - Those who used to work till 5pm might not like the fact that some properties stay open till 7pm on week days. - Since the business is all about dealing with people, you will occasionally be working with some mildly to very unpleasant prospects and residents so you have to be able to quickly regain attitude and shake off negativity.

Thanks for your feedback! It's great hearing that your experiences with us have been positive overall. While requirements for commutes and hours can vary by community and by role it's important that we are doing our best to make sure that we strike a balance between our policies creating a positive customer experience and creating a positive employee experience, so please be sure to speak up to your Property Manager if you ever feel like we should consider tweaking the setup at your community. You're definitely correct that with just about any Venterra role there is the potential of needing to deal with upset folks. It's important that our employees are able to competently and confidently handle these situations while not internalizing any negativity. While this is the case with most customer service positions, we do our best (largely through the great training that you mention) to make sure our employees are as prepared as possible to handle this difficult situations. If you ever need any more guidance on this front be sure to speak up so we can help you out! Thanks for your intranet and Encasa suggestions, too! We'll be sure to pass them along. If you have any other ideas for us be sure to submit a Better Way! Thank you again for taking the time to share your thoughts and have a great day!
