      Great at Teaching and Equipping Employees for Success!

      Pros

      They take plenty of time to invest in their employees. They really take collaboration and teamwork seriously, and it is obvious. Fellow employees from other properties are more than willing to assist when needed. Management is also willing to help employees grow within in the company. Also willing to work on a learning curve, so that can take away the stress of learning all that is necessary to succeed at the job. Also, the company does their best to connect its properties with other sister-properties in any given area. A good company to work for!

      Cons

      Equity buys and sells properties regularly, so you may not get to stay with your property for too long.

      Your review made our day! We love the “one team” message that came across loud and clear in comments, and are so pleased that our mantra was your reality. It sounds like you were a part of a great team - both your community team and the larger network of your portfolio, which is music to our ears. Thank you so much for your uplifting words, and for your time with us. Best wishes to you!
