Pros

Long-term oriented management strategy, inclusive atmosphere, slow/steady increase in geographic footprint, internal growth opportunities abound.

Cons

Home office is in Canada but company operations are HQ in Texas (can seem a little disconnected at times). However the company does do a good job encouraging senior members to travel back and forth to see each other in person several times per year.

Pros

Pay was pretty good. Loved my coworkers in the office. Generous budget for miscellaneous to make the work environment better Get to have fun with coworkers Streamlined reports. Most other community managers are genuinely nice people.

Cons

PTO policy is outdated. 80 hours for the whole year. Not up front, but accrued. You never have more than a couple of days to use at a time. Assigned mentors do not have any property management experience outside of Venterra. Typical corporate politics. Eye roll. Employees are infantilized. I was told something for leaving my Assistant Manager alone in the office for a day. Really? As a Community Manager, you are expected to clean… a lot. Which is very strange. Colleagues that want to be overly involved in your personal life. Veeeerrrryy traditional company, if you catch my drift, so don’t expect a company wide “Pride” celebration.

The review is much appreciated, but I’m sorry to hear your time with us wasn’t up to the Venterra standard. Great compensation, colleagues, policies, and resources are all important, but they are certainly only part of the total work experience. While we haven’t had any restrictions in terms of spacing out vacation time and vacation accruals increase based on tenure, we were excited to have made multiple changes to enhance our PTO policies recently and will be sure to take your feedback into account as we look at this area in the future. It’s also our goal to be a great place to work for all. We recognize that requires an ongoing effort and the passion of team members at all levels of the organization. By partnering with an external company to explore our standing in terms of DE&I and identify areas for improvement, we’ve been able to make progress in this area, but we do have a long way to go. You can stay up to date with these efforts, see current Venterra demographics, and find out how our team members celebrate a range of holidays and traditions from our Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion page on Venterra.com. A great employee experience also means we’re providing the resources needed to thrive at Venterra and beyond starting from day one. Striking the balance between guiding the way and encouraging growth through independent learning can sometimes be tricky, but effective leadership training is certainly key. If you do have any specific suggestions in terms of how we could improve in this area, please don’t hesitate to reach out for a discussion by phone (281-822-9125) or email (bgeorge@venterraliving.com). Thank you again for sharing!
