Pros

They offer good benefits. After 3 years basic health insurance is free. I haven't seen that offered anywhere since Freeman Webb Company back in 2004. They offer 2 floating Holidays per year plus your birthday off with pay. 3 level of Insurance choices. Great benefit package all around.

Cons

Since the buy-out, whenever I have visited a Greystar community vs a Riverstone community, I hear a lot of "oh, you are a Riverstone person, right!?" Although Corporate Greystar employees choose to use the term "Riverstone Legacy" but once a corporate person asked me on-site if everyone at that property helping was a "Riverstone" person. I feel as though Greystar is very insular as far as Riverstone being added as new properties rather than as new employees that are now part of the Greystar family.

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.
