Pros

The People and values of the company. My personal experience working for Equity Residential has been wonderful. I have worked for a few other major property management companies and I can sincerely say this is the best ride I have had in this industry.  I work with a wonderful portfolio team, Regional and VP that are always one call away to assist with anything.  Corporate communication is extremely organized and informative.  They have resources to assist you with growth development such as monthly classes.  I have personal growth goals and I see myself growing with Equity Residential. Lets continue the ride!

Cons

Honestly I cant think of one.

Great culture to work for. Good benefits and company perks.

Equity has a clicky culture. You will not get promoted unless you kiss butt of become part of the manager friend group.

Thanks for taking the time to leave a review. We are pleased to read that you love your colleagues and the work environment. We are disheartened to hear about your perspective of our management team. We do care about our team members, and do our best to ensure that leaders and employees live our 10 Ways to be a Winner and communicate and show appreciation for the work that our team members do. We regret that was not your experience, and hope that you shared your concerns with Human Resources. Thanks again for the feedback and good luck to you!
