Fantastic and honest feedback here. Process changes have far reaching effects and you are correct that the training aspect need to be quick, thorough, and memorable while simultaneously being thoughtful of the time stretches you encounter on site with residents and community needs. The feedback I'll be sending here to the L&D team is around leveraging Spekit as an additional resource to help with in the flow of work learning. Thanks for the review!

Poor Leadership leading to a declining culture

Director

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

A handful of great people, unlimited PTO, remote positions

Cons

A property management company that decided to be a tech company recently and lose site of our real purpose as a management company, the actual management of our assets and onsite team members. Unqualified executive leadership, undervalued employees, lack of transparency, poor product roll-outs. Lots of talkers, very few actual executors. Internal disorganization causes friction and unnecessary bottlenecks.

The Director role is often the most challenging due to the need to prioritize tasks and allocate resources to accomplish them. Each in it's own can become overwhelming given the size and scope of the responsibilities. However, it is crucial that we use our positions and influence to drive the changes we seek. By doing so, we demonstrate to our team that we are committed to being effective advocates in the constantly evolving work environment.
