Pros
Stepping stone to learn the Storage business if that's what you want to do. Good way to see how employees should not be treated.
Cons
From reading posted reviews seems that those who are in the Glendale corporate office are treated like humans. Can't say the same for the rest of us in the actual storage facilities. District mangers are basically puppets who are not allowed to make decisions. Pay, bonus, time off, benefits, are all below industry standards. Company places unrealistic demands on field personal. Only a few ever make bonus. In the years I was with the company I had time off, benefits, and bonus taken away. The merchandise they sell is sub par and grossly over priced. They think customers are idiots. Employee safety is a big issue for field personal. I have heard of some employees fixing locks and doors with their own money because management would not. That's pretty bad. I have no idea what people are talking about in regards to advancement. Basically you can become a trainer which gets you peanuts as compensation. That's it. You go no further. District mangers are recruited from outside of the company. Takes them a year to learn the business. By then they are either fired or they are running fast to another job. Turnover at this company is astounding. HR is a joke. I saw employees report district managers for egregious behavior. HR did nothing. On the contrary, within six months some one above fired the employees. Trust me. This company borders on evil.
