Pros
Pay was pretty good for being straight out of college. Hours per week were predictable — I think I only got paid overtime once. Scheduling was less predictable, and working weekends was common. Bonuses for every lease I closed were nice. I became mentally stronger. This job hardened my heart and calloused my mind. I got a discount on my rent, which was cool. However, I must caution you against living where you work. Residents would bother me with requests on my days off, and it was hard to set boundaries. Eventually, living where I worked resulted in near-constant anxiety.
Cons
The rate of turnover here was insane. People were constantly getting fired or quitting out of desperation. Absenteeism was also off the charts. I was often alone in the office, totally green and dealing with requests I was not yet equipped to handle. Nothing was organized. Nothing ever worked. Every day here was a catastrophe. This place completely broke people. I believe that many of the people I worked with had serious substance abuse issues, and I can hardly blame them. I was made to believe that this job could serve as a way for me to learn Greystar's business from the ground up, then put my business degree to use in a corporate role. Even if such an opportunity did eventually come through, I don't think I would have taken it. My time working on-site had soured my view of the company to the point that I lost interest in working for them in any capacity. Nearly all of the friends I made at orientation have also quit and moved on.
