Equity Residential reviews

Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts about our culture, training, and the sense of empowerment and accountability you feel here - it’s music to our ears! We also appreciate the constructive feedback you have provided regarding pay, time off, and internal growth. We recognize how competitive promotional opportunities can be in some areas, and we encourage you to align yourself with a mentor, and to take advantage of opportunities to further your knowledge and prepare yourself for the next step. Regarding your feedback about compensation, we conduct extensive market evaluations frequently to remain competitive with total compensation (base salary, commissions, benefits, etc.). We find many employees are actually making more on the new commission program, but with the different payout structure (every 2 weeks as opposed to once a month), it feels much different - so we urge you to take a close look at your current and past earnings to compare, and stay in communication with your manager. As for time off, we know that the pressure is felt more than ever during the busy summer months, but we want to ensure that you have the opportunity to take the time you have, when you need it. If you have concerns, please reach out to your Regional Manager or HR Director. Thanks again for your feedback!

First and foremost - thank you for your 10+ years of service! Your tenure speaks volumes to your level of dedication, and as we recognize the importance of continuing to engage and retain our team members, we sincerely appreciate your feedback. We are continually looking at our employee discounts to take into consideration market factors, which is why the apartment discount percentage for Northern California was increased to 40%. That being said, as you likely know from your experience here, the market demands the increase percentages for lease renewals, and employee residents are subject to fluctuations in rental increases, as are all residents. Please know that we are always open to hearing your feedback, which is why we conduct our annual engagement survey, hold Town Hall meetings, have rolled out a new brand promise, and have planned our Leader Summits for the fall. We sincerely hope to have the opportunity to listen to and address your concerns. Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts, and please keep the dialogue going with your local leadership team.
