Absolutely the worst slumlord company

Anonymous employee

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

They offer decent pay but at a high cost to your time and do not approve overtime but expect you to work

Cons

So many from poor management to how they treat residents and staff to not having money to pay vendors as well as make repairs. I cant stress enough you will have I work life balance and they will expect you to do work out of your job description to keep a skeleton crew
