      Pros

      Always paid on time, HR Dept always very helpful and knowledgeable. One of the largest residential property management companies in the country.

      Cons

      Too many layers of "management". The actual "property managers" must always confer with above and "we'll get back to you" seemed to be the standard answer. Created unrealistic time lines for completion of jobs because they were rarely on-site to comprehend what was going on. At the same time tried to schedule small tasks down to the minute never allowing any transition time to prepare to correctly handle the job that needed done.

      Life is too Short

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      They manage over 1000 properties throughout the US.

      Cons

      There is little or no communication between properties and corporate office. Corporate office doesn't even know the property managers who operate their own little fiefdoms. Pay is low ... very low. Managers live in fear of their Boards of Directors.

      Cons

      Very expensive medical insurance Departments DO NOT work together Each department tries to make the other look bad instead of recognizing we are all one team. Horrible Leadership from Executive Team The core values are a joke, no one actually lives by them especially upper management.
