Thank you for taking the time to write a review about your experience at AVB! We are always evaluating our pay structure to make sure we are on par with the market and offering competitive pay, we also want to ensure the responsibilities of the associate align with their compensation. Additionally, ensuring a transparent promotion process is a crucial part of AVB's culture. It would be helpful to discuss both of these concerns further to gain insight into the issue at hand. Please contact avalonbayhumanresources@avalonbay.com to share your experience in more depth.
