Fantastic Culture, Growing Company

Business Outlook

Pros

The people who you get to work with are awesome. I work in Customer Acquisition and it is a fantastic group. The work is engaging, there is a great appetite for testing and trying new things, and it is mixed with the right amount of fun. Our CMO James is a great leader to work with.

Cons

No negatives that are not controllable. If a problem / opportunity is there, you can usually work with others to fix it.

Business Outlook

Pros

A fantastic work environment. Management seems genuinely interested in employee satisfaction. Extra Space genuinely strives to offer customers value for their money and a consistent brand image.

Cons

The company is growing fast, which puts increased demand on the employees to maintain high standards. Increased demand can lead to lower morale. Also, as the company grows, there is no guarantee that a very friendly corporate culture will be maintained.

Pros

I have been with the company less than a year. Everyone that I have met, from Assistant Store Managers to the CEO, has been excellent. There is a wonderful corporate culture and it is a great environment to work in. Integrity, partnership and hard work are key company values.

Cons

In my experience the compensation is somewhat below market. Wages for employees below VP level are not as competitive as other companies. The benefits package is only average, it was cheaper for me to go on my spouse's plan than use our company one.
