Thank you for taking some time to mention the pros and cons of your experience with Equity. We encourage employees to reach out to be heard if there are any concerns regarding work life balance, and we are continually striving to ensure appropriate staffing levels and providing time off benefits and other support resources to encourage employees to have balance. We are disappointed that wasn’t your experience and appreciate your feedback.

The Pandemic has truly brought out the best in Equity, which already was a great place to thrive. During this challenging time, Equity has ensured team members and residents alike were supported and protected by sound business protocols. Equity also continued to paid team members their salaries and never laid off anyone. Why would you work anywhere else!

Cons
