Equity Residential reviews

I thought that when we were getting bought by Equity things would get better. That is far from the truth. We were already in a tight squeeze and they only made it tighter. Sure they pay better then Archstone based on salary. Kiss your commissions good-bye. Give up 4 deals to get paid pennies on three or four. Equity doesn't know how to merge things. Look at the Equity girl who was a star with Equity - they put her in one of the worst managed Archstone buildings and she had no choice but to leave the company overall. I am shocked she lasted as long as she did with those tyrants. I didn't know her- but I know Equity lost a huge asset. This just shows to proove they dont care how good you are- everyone is replaceable.

The base pay and commission is very low, you have to make a significant amount of leases per month to make it worth your while. If you work at a small property it's hard to make decent commission. They constantly change the pay and bonus structure and usually the sales team is the one taking the brunt of the change.
