Pros
Freedom to go out to visit properties when needed. Fun & reliable co-workers. Individual decision-making in a team-like environment. A lot of great people work at entry-level and community management positions.
Cons
Upper Management is not a positive group of people. Always looking for your faults, rarely supportive. The company has lost site of it's overall goals. Mission statement of the company very secretive. No transparency. You are made to feel as though each day is your last and you are lucky to be there. Work-load is well-beyond manageable. You may be given as much as 20,000 homes or 8-9 communities to manage all at once. Expected to conduct regular and bi-montly Board of Director meetings. They advertise salaries up to $50,000 per year. In reality you can expect somewhere around $35,000. A typical work day will begin at 7:30-7:45 and go until 8:00-10:00pm depending on whether or not you have a Board meeting to conduct. In addition, you are on-call 24/7 and are expected to answer the call within 15 mins. or less. There are repercussions if you don't.
