Pros

Light work office job. Minimal paperwork and upkeep. If you have effective time management,this is an easy job.They cut the stock piling of PTO because too many PM/RF were making it impossible to schedule a district with all the four day weekends... I manage a very large property. My occupancy is always above 94%. All the goals are attainable. I have no problems staying above 90% on lock sales and insurance sales. They give you all the tools to complete those goals. The scripts work if you use them correctly. Doesnt matter what neighborhood your facility is in. Im in an extremely poor area.

Cons

Constantly trying to match LY numbers plus 20% growth. Especially in poor economic times. Should go back last five years,drop higest,drop lowest and average the rest. Very few companies in the world see a 20% growth year after year, do not know why they expect properties to do it. Rental increases. They are ridiculous. Long term tenants pay almost 70% more for the same size a new customer off the street would pay. Long term tenants should not be punished for consumer loyalty. If a tenant rents more than one unit,they get all the increases at once. Had two different tenants have increases totaling combined at $179 and $220 more PER MONTH. Upkeep for the properties (atleast in my district) is poor. For all the late fees alone a typical property brings in,there shouldn't be any issues. Some properties so not even have restrooms. They have to drive to another property to use the facilities. Bonus structure is not personal,or even property performance based. Your lumped in as a district. You have have the best numbers in the world,but if other properties in your district are lacking. It drags up down with them on a lower tier.

Cons

Cons: As Public Storage continues to grow, the pace of the business can be very fast. There are often multiple initiatives, priorities, and opportunities happening simultaneously, which requires strong organizational skills and the ability to adapt quickly. Success in this environment depends on being able to effectively prioritize, manage competing demands, and stay focused on the highest-impact work. While the pace can be challenging at times, it also creates tremendous opportunities for growth, learning, and career development.
