Pros

-Meeting or overachieving monthly lease goals made for a really nice bonus check -Great coworkers -Great benefits of vision, dental, 401k, and medical with a HSA option -Housing discount for associates -Associate appreciation days once a quarter -Some vacation and PTO

Cons

-Very, very stressful job between balancing paperwork, tours, move-ins, move-outs, and addressing resident concerns as they arise (and then creating a paper trail for said concern). -base pay is not very good, the months you don’t meet your sales goal are a struggle -Very minimal upper management support -Made to feel guilty for taking time off or calling in sick because other people have to pick up your “slack” when you’re gone

Pros

Company culture makes you really appreciate where you work. I definitely agree that is the "people" at AVB that make it great.

Cons

Nothing really... sometimes it is a bit of a struggle to wear so many hats.
