Pros

I believe the pay format has changed but when I originally started as a consultant I started at 16. The nice part of the job are the bonuses (75 for new residents) when you lease an apartment. You are generally working with nice people.

Cons

You have alot of different job responsibilities and often times not enough resources or time to resolve things, bad facilities with the same issues, angry residents, the fact that Avalonbay is a big corporation and they are not flexible with vacation.

Pros

Management starts out acting like they want to help you. But there really isn't any upward mobility. They know who they want to promote or advance into upper positions. It takes about 4 to 6 months, butin that time you will learn where you really stand.

Cons

Management attitude. If you make a complaint or have a question about anyone they find is a friend.... forget a career. Even though retaliation is considered unacceptable.... management does it ALL the time. So sad to see they push associates into a non-caring attitude.

Pros

Team family atmosphere. Quarterly events are held to award employees and update employees in changes within the company. The company is open to change in order to grow. The company provides excellent benefits and their is always room to advance.

Cons

I don't have any complaints!
