Pros

Decent work experience in an office.

Cons

Corporate can come off as money hungry. Scion is growing at a crazy rate and at times because it is now such a large company, it can feel as if you are simply a tool in bringing money rather than an employee of a company. Our property went through an acquisition in January of 2017 and we came onto The Scion Group. During this time there were a lot of empty promises that were made, but never followed through with. Each employee who had been working for the previous company for over a year was awarded a discount in rent, up to managements discretion. Every year we had reached 100% pre lease and were getting the job done so those employees who met the year mark and lived on property received this discount. When Scion aquired the property, each housing consultant subsequently had their discount revoked and found themselves paying market rate rent halfway through their lease term. Not only was every employee now forced to pay over $1000 more in rent than anticipated, commission for signed leases was lowered. To counteract with employee discounts being taken away Scion promised an incentive based commission program called J-Turner which would essentially be a $200 each month if a housing consultant maintained a touring rating of 9 or above. This program while promised multiple times, was ultimately never implemented.

Zero upwards accountability for management past the site level Horrific HR department that makes it impossible to hold reports accountable Favoritism is rampant and will destroy jobs Claims a culture of "Go-Getters" when in reality they say this to abuse your work-life balance to the highest degree COO is completely out of touch with his workforce and makes changes off of vibes
