Thank you for taking time to write this review. We’re so glad that you feel supported in your role. Certainly, Leasing Consultants wear many hats and this is why we value our “One Team” philosophy - we know how hard you work! Your comment about work/life balance is certainly not what we strive for. Please reach out to your local HR Director with feedback on how we could be doing better as a company there.
