Extra Greed Storage

Pros

Store managers and assistant managers along with our district team leader are good quality people and are all helpfull. Starting pay is fair for the market. Paid time off is good and benefits are good . Work hours are pretty good.

Cons

Where as the starting pay is decent the raises you get at the store level are pathetic considering the huge profits Extra Space Storage has made in recent years and the fact the store employees are the ones busting their butts making the corporate big shots rich. Now I'm a bussiness major so I understand the need for a company to increase it's revenues and profits but Extra Space goes to far as they try to nickle and dime their customers at every turn. Extra Space pushes its employees to use bait and switch tactics when renting storage units to customers. They force customers to buy storage insurance . As one customer told me sounds like ObamaCare ( where the federal government mandates that everyone buys health insurance). Extra Space also loves to jack up tenants rates . Now I understand rate increases are necessary but their increases are ridiculously high and of course it's the store employees who catch the crap from angry tenants. The computer system that Extra Space uses is outdated slow and prone to many errors which can make life hell for store employees. Technical support from The "Help" Desk is slow and useless. In a nutshell Extra Space is extremely greedy and at times unethical. Which is why I can't wait to find new employment.

Pros

The hours are great and depending on your district or DM it can be a pretty easy and casual job.

Cons

Working every saturday, it seems like every other week there a new change as far as policies and duties. Making calls in the required time allow can be stressful. Also some of the people you work with can be lazy. Oh and most importantly, it's all about who you know and who likes you if you want to get promoted.

Pros

The Incentive program is fair for the most part. The people that work there are great to be around. The company shows a caring nature for all employees.

Cons

While the District Managers for the most part are good there are some that feel they can make the rules up as they go along. One DM would fire people just to get rid of them and no matter what the people say about her obvious dislike for some people she will find whatever reason to fire them even if it was false.
