Great to work with the tenants, zero professional development - Tenant Services Coordinator Breaking Ground Employee Review

Tenant services coordinator

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Working with the tenants is great. Overall really nice facilities and compelling mission. Some of the people Rosanne hired are around and great.

Cons

Zero training. Zero professional development. Grossly understaffed and very high expectations (which is great but also unrealistic). Extremely top down. Won't consider anything without running everything by every possible exec. No room for creativity.
