Pros
There are some benefits of working here, but in the long term, they all get overshadowed by the cons. Depending on your team, you can have a lot of fun, or the worst time ever (sort of a normal caveat though). Some members of upper management are good, and some are absolutely horrible. there's just no consistency. They do a good job of consistently hosting conferences, but they gatekeep who can go and it creates some dissonance among newer staff.
Cons
-Overall, the entire company exploits the younger workforce and underpays them. In no human world should a full-time manager who is RUNNING a property that generates millions of dollars in revenue a year be making less than 40k. It's horrific. They pay leasing ambassadors as little as they can and get away with it, and they work as hard as they are paid: minimum. This creates additional strain on on-site management because they have to overcompensate for not having any decent part-time employees. -The culture is toxic. Employees are afraid to take breaks, afraid to take personal days, terrified of missing an email after hours or not taking a call outside of their designated work times. -There is little to no training from corporate or upper management. You'll get some online onboarding and then you're just thrown out there expected to figure it out. -There's also little to no accountability for underperforming employees. They refuse to fire bad employees because then upper management has to actually work and hire and train new people. They would rather let complacency run rampant so they don't have to put any effort in. This is very, very apparent in their high turnover rate because the employees who are actually good at their job see people who don't put any effort in receive the same pay, same benefits, same everything, so they feel undervalued. -There's no clear cut upward mobility. Promotions are doled out on popularity contests and convenience, never on merit. -The corporate office will actively ask you to lie to your investors and ownership groups in order to seem like they're doing a good job.
