Pros

Venterra was great at creating a great customer experience with residents. They held a lot of events for the on-site teams including annual family fun days, yearly award ceremonies, etc. Great team atmosphere in the office- I met some great friends who I continue to be friends with to this day.

Cons

Salary was outdated and seems like it continues to be and is not up to industry standard. After leaving, I realized how much they preached promoting from within. This is far from true-- the only promotions I ever saw were lower levels (leasing to ACM, ACM to CM) but nothing beyond that. Tenured employees who work hard for the company get overlooked by someone from outside of the organization for positions they are more than capable of doing. Senior leadership does not take accountability and when it comes down to it, they do not value their hard working tenured managers.

While we’d like to thank you for taking a moment to reflect on your time with us, and it’s great that you enjoyed our events and the company of your colleagues, I’m disappointed that it wasn’t as positive as we would have liked overall. Most of our current regional and corporate team members have been promoted into their roles, but there are still times when we rely on external talent to introduce a unique perspective or set of skills to the organization. And, although regional benchmarking reports continue to guide the way in terms of adjusting pay offerings, it’s critical that our team members are comfortable having a conversation on this topic at any time to ensure compensation is well-aligned with their specific skills and qualifications. Maintaining a politic-free environment where open, candid discussions like these can happen is a must for a positive experience, so I’d love a chance to better understand your specific observations. With this in mind, I’d like to invite you to contact me to discuss by phone (281-822-9125) or email (bgeorge@venterraliving.com) when time allows. Thank you again for the review and in advance for any additional information you’re able to provide.

Pros

Annual Kickoff Party, Leadership Retreat

Cons

Politics at its finest. Tenure means nothing. No loyalty to their employees, and lack of research in what your employees have given to the company.

As much as we appreciate the review, I’m sorry to hear that you were left disappointed with your experience. While healthy company growth sometimes requires the introduction of new and unique perspectives, our leaders should remain dedicated to our Employer Promise to strive to promote from within, and a team member’s track record should be considered in any employment decision. This certainly requires taking a fair, objective, and politic-free approach. Given this, we’d love an opportunity to gather a few more details about your specific observations to prevent others from feeling the same way you have. I’d like to encourage you to reach out to me directly by phone (281-822-9125) or email (bgeorge@venterraliving.com) for a deeper understanding. If you prefer, third-party company EthicsPoint (https://bit.ly/3stiJsA) remains a resource where our current and past team members can anonymously report concerns, as well. Thank you again for sharing the review and in advance for providing a few more insights as soon as time allows.

It’s great to hear that your time with us has been positive overall and the feedback here is appreciated! Keeping communications and operations moving smoothly is a critical part of team member experience, and it’s something that will become even more critical as we continue to grow. With this in mind, if you have any specific suggestions, I’d like to encourage you to connect with your Regional Manager or jump into our Innspire portal to submit idea(s) for consideration. Thank you again for taking the time to share a review!
