Thank you for taking time to review your time working at Equity Residential. We strive to be an employee driven organization that recognizes that people work and function in different ways and encourage our leadership to be able to manage as an individual might need. With that being said, it is important for our employees to feel respected, valued, and comfortable at work. We would encourage anyone that feels otherwise to contact their local Human Resources team to further discuss what they’re experiencing.

Pros

Good internal opportunity if you're hard worker and smart about it.

Cons

No life you will give up your life and work for them 24/7. I think every one should be aware of this. Managers have to much power and can push you to your limit or out the door.

Hello - thank you for taking time to post your review. We know that this has been a challenging year, and that Service Technicians are expected to be in an on-call rotation. We do our best to communicate any upcoming staff shortages and provide coverage in a feasible manner so you don’t feel like you’re working 24/7. We want to do our best to work with you so that you can enjoy time outside of work. Please make sure you are having conversations with your respective Community Manager and Facilities Manager to let them know how you are feeling.
