Pros
• I have been with FirstService Residential MO/KS since my junior year of Highschool (2014) as a part of their pool division/maintenance. Most recently I had the opportunity to fill the role of Project Management Intern, earlier this year. • The professional atmosphere and organization climate are simply great. FSR is built on 7 solid principles which are exercised with a high degree of effectiveness and efficiency every day. Upholding these principles is a well-balanced mix of hard working, personable, colleagues. • The HR department could not be any better. I challenge anybody to try and find a more progressive, supportive and well-organized HR department filled with true leaders, not bosses. • Last, I am extremely thankful for the opportunity FSR provided me. I enjoyed being a part of the organization’s professional community which says a lot as an intern in the corporate world.
Cons
• On occasion, a minor drawback I experienced was a lack of communication between departments. This is an issue experienced not just in business, but every aspect of life. Meaning the resolution should not be anything new to a professional and not too difficult to overcome, making it a minor issue (if it’s on those rare occasions). • Being in the property management business certain time periods can cause internal stress. Stress is fine and absolutely normal in business but on rare occasions this stress was not handled in the most effective way and hindered the organization from reaching its full potential.
