Pros

The overall atmosphere and the coworkers who sit beside you are amazing. They do a lot of things for charity and giving back.

Cons

However, AVB does pay lower then what other call centers in the area pay. Most of the employees do not make over 40k a year. They are hiring new people to work from home but will not give the employees who have been there the same option. There is no organization with policies. You don’t know when one exist until they are telling you that you cannot do something or you violated one. It seems like they come out of thin air at their discretion and they pick and choose who to apply those polices too. The job titles are a joke. You can be at a lower level and doing the same exact work as someone who is at a higher level and getting paid more. Nobody cares as long as the work is done.

Thank you for your review, we appreciate your input and the opportunity it provides to offer more clarity. AvalonBay bases its pay on a number of factors, including local living wage guidelines, individual performance, experience level, and job responsibilities. Associates are also able to take advantage of frequent promotions and pay increases through our Career Ladder program. At entry levels, this can occur as quickly as 6 months and, at higher levels, as frequently as once a year. This provides our associates with the potential to increase their pay fairly rapidly. With respect to telecommuting, we have received positive feedback from our associates about our hybrid work model in which associates have the flexibility to work from home certain days and come into the office other days. Any exceptions to this model follow a thorough and consistent review and approval process, most of which fall under our business continuity policy. While it’s disappointing to hear that you aren't satisfied, you are a valued associate and we would like to be able to address your concerns personally. Should you want to have a discussion, please contact us at avalonbayhumanresources@avalonbay.com.

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.
