Pros

Great comrade with some of the Equity employees, who also were faithful to Equity Values. Miss the part of helping future residents find their home and managing the current ones.

Cons

Unfortunately, someone who can be a bully can continue to be in a leadership role. I wish I still worked for the company, but between her unprofessionalism when dealing with a volatile situation.

Thank you for sharing your perspectives. While we certainly appreciate you highlighting our Equity Values, the experience that you’ve described does not align or support those values and we take allegations of bullying very seriously. We encourage our employees to speak directly with their manager and/or our Human Resources team, however we also offer resources such as our Call to Action Hotline (by phone 800-231-5699 or online CallToActionHotline.com), as an option to voice concerns anonymously. Thank you again, we wish you the best of luck in your future endeavors.
