Pros

rental benefits and get to meet cool people when giving tours

Cons

they do not move salary up at all once you are in. I worked with many managers there were all rude and only cared about the bottom line. They said I would be trained to be a community manager never got training. I just felt like a number. I HAVE NEVER WORKED AT A WORSE PLACE. Do yourself a favor and DO NOT APPLY.

Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that you felt this way and hope that you share your feedback with either your manager, HR and/or the Call to Action Hotline during your time with Equity, as what you’ve described doesn’t align with our culture or values. As you know, we have a formal year end review process with the potential for a merit increase to be considered (based on a variety of factors). This review process is primarily tied to the performance of each individual employee, however, with manager/employee check ins occurring throughout the year.
