Pros

Blah blah blah blah blah-

Cons

Regional level leadership have their best interest in mind, not yours or your teams. No employees to - figure it out! Worked 7 days straight to bad - figure it out! You are expected to create miracles with nothing, when you pull off those miracles, it's written off, if your not an inner circle employee, or at a flagship property Outside the box creative thought is not allowed, or tolerated. Many hidden agendas.

Pros

They have a lot of activities for employees to participate and get involved with the community.

Cons

They don't care too much about employees, you can get fired in a second. I didn't get fired, but I saw many come and go. You can work really hard for a raise or a promotion, but if you are not liked by upper management then forget about it.

Pros

Resident are very nice to work for and staff also having the right equipment and support. Running a 106 units property is keeps me more hands on.

Cons

My budget in carpet replacement also in appliance replacement needed to be larger. Having a small maintenance shop was hard to have.
