Pros

Ever since I started with Avalonbay I've been able to clearly see the path given to me. Management is very open, honest and trustworthy. They provide you with the tools you need to succeed as well as the guidance to coach your peers.

Cons

The only con I could possibly give would be staffing. I would like to see a more thorough look into new hires and their skill sets. To set yourself apart from the rest you must provide nothing but the best.
