Some managers don't know their own properties. They delegate only. I'm a firm believer that you should lead by example, and when you don't fully know how to do the jobs of the staff directly below you, there is no way for you to do this.
Like a lot of office environments, the atmosphere can become cliquey and in the instances I've seen, the problem with this usually stems directly from upper management because they allow it to come to a head before addressing it.
You're salaried, and as such are paid for 40 hours a week, yet more often than not you end up working far over 40 hours per week without receiving additional compensation. I realize this is a problem with corporate America in general, but I think that Bozzuto, as a company, is better than this and doing a disservice to their employees. Pay us for the hours we work. Yes, I know upper management is also salaried and they often put in overtime that goes unpaid, but they also make 2-3 times more than Sales and Marketing Associates do. If we're sick for the day, take vacation, or have to leave work early, we have to use paid time off or go unpaid. Is it so hard to pay us extra when we stay 6-7 hours a week after the office is closed, working hard, getting leases, and taking care of our residents? I don't think so.
