Pros

The only people I liked were my leaser and maintenance tech. They were the only two people who kept me around longer than I should have been.

Cons

It was one of the worst experiences of my life. I am seasoned in property management. I know how to do my job but upper management treats you like dirt. They never thought I could actually get my job done without having to micromanage me every single day. You couldn't get anything done because they constantly piled on more work for you to do and if it wasn't done in a timely manner, that's your fault even though I was told during the interview process that the RPM wasn't a micromanager (lie) HR will not help you. They do not care about their employees. They will use your words against you. They won't help you when you've expressed your concerns and how uncomfortable you are at your property. They express they are "all for mental health awareness" but in reality that couldn't be further from the truth. This company only care about making money. If your numbers are low they'll write you up even when you're doing everything you can and that was within the five months I worked for this company. It got so bad I was having panic attacks before work every morning. Don't get me started on other CM's who watch your every move and report to your RPM. They make decisions without consulting you first. Your property isn't even YOURS, it's everyone elses and the moment you try to stand up for yourself they shoot you down. No one will welcome you with open arms. It's every man for themselves. The Bay Area portfolio is a joke and so is the owner. It's absolutely disgusting how I was treated and I'm glad I left.
