Pros

There is a certain feeling of prestige when working for Greystar and it looks great on a resume. The largest property management company in the world has lots of opportunities for you to work wherever you’ll be happiest. The employee discount structure is far better than in the past, and the healthcare benefits are the best in the business in my experience. Searchable SOPs, mentor programs, fun day, training opportunities, etc.

Cons

Where do I begin? You better hope you have a good regional & director, or you’re going to be miserable. You’ll likely have to pay for any credentials you want out of pocket - there’s no support for continuing education in any way. Pick your portfolio carefully. Once you’re in a bad one, you’re stuck. Don’t think that you’ll be free to transfer out after your six months either. They’ll always find a way to keep that from happening. Pay is laughable compared to what you’re forced to deal with and the expectations placed on you from upper management.

Pros

Pay with housing discounts tend to be better than competition

Cons

Severe negatives if you plan on taking any type of leave of absence. While they are required to allow the leave, (my experience) has been that if retaliatory since it adds additional work load to those in your group (your boss). I’ve experienced this personally, and have seen it with other managers in my group. You will start to receive write ups that you never had before, micro managed, and/or fired after such things. I went from discussing promotions before my leave started to becoming ineligible for rehire after taking state protected LOA.
