Pros

Some of the people that work there are nice.

Cons

This company is very cheap with their resources starting at the top and trickling down to their Property Managers. Compensation of expenses policy were changed verbally and not in writing by upper manager who wanted us to come out of pocket and use our own credit cards for certain expenses that the company should cover. Company seems to be clueless about this. Also, they are reluctant to put most “policy changes” in writing. So they say one thing and do another. Accounting department takes forever to reimburse expense reports and to pay vendors. Upper management sides with building owners and their poor treatment of onsite property managers, even when their employees suffer because of it. Very BAD place to be a property manager. With the exception of a few people, almost all managers, HR staff and upper management are overweight as the stress of the job causes most to overeat. Not a pretty overall image for anyone who prides themselves in looking good and likes to keep fit. “Lead by example” does not apply here from the top working its way down.

Pros

-Great networking opportunities. -Good IT support. -Great benifits. -Great employee housing discount and housing opportunities. -Commissions will make your paycheck worth it.

Cons

-Management is broad and impersonal. You may feel like a number. -Your workload can be a lot at times. if you work well under pressure, you'd succeed here. -The leasing season is not year round meaning you will have slow months and you will have good ones. Save in the good months to get through the slow ones. -High turnover. Resilience will get you far. -It's rare that you get your weekends at a company like this.
