Pros

- Depends on your manager, but I was fortunate to have had great experiences with my managers and my team - Basic Medical benefits are $0 for the team member after 3 years of service - Student living or Senior housing is the place to be as a CM, would not suggest conventional

Cons

- If you’re a CM, don’t expect to be able to move departments unless you want to be an RPM. Even then, they’ll hire most RPMs from the outside. - Employees stay because of the team, not because of the company. The downside to this is that when a manager leaves, the team can quickly lose faith and motivation which often leads to as mass exodus of a team. - Accrued PTO (just give a set # of days from the start of the year) - Do not expect to have a work life balance. Especially if you go on vacation, you’ll still need your laptop and expectations are that you will respond and answer your phone. - Salary is weak. You could go to another mgmt company for more. - Mgmt of COVID response was awful

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.
