Pros

The hours are nice. If you're not a morning person, not having to wake up super early is a nice. Your coworkers are pretty cool too.

Cons

They do not value their employees. The pay is not worth it! You do a lot for very little money. Also they base promotions on tenure alone, not based on skills or qualifications. You are also forced to "go for the no". Keep offering product to customers knowing they don't want it. Ridiculous! You are also not allowed to sell yourself product but if you're the only one working that facility what are you supposed to do? If you try to add the item you want to someone else's rental knowing it's already been paid for, you get fired. You also have to drive around town to work at different properties each day. The property managers don't always have the proper tools needed to run the facility so you are forced to try and function within dysfunction. They also do very little maintenance to their facilities unless they are forced to do something. All in all, do not work for this company. I am shocked they are still in business.

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.
