Pros

I am not sure I can give them any pros. They only care about the money they make, not their employees.

Cons

Allow property managers to insult and speak ill of their employees. Which is something that can be sued over. They are also not very accommodating when it comes to scheduling. If one is promoted to an administrative assistant, they should then have a schedule that makes them beneficial to their position and growth. Speaking of growth, they do not offer any programs to obtain new skills besides online videos on the FirstService University website.

Pros

Free Bagels and much room for growth if your in the right team.

Cons

The pay could be better considering the competition that’s out. I also feel they can use more back office support in regards to the systems and platforms that helps this company thrive. I also noticed the Property Managers are not getting the support they need due to comfortability and non due diligence at the top of the workflow chain. Management also seemed a bit disorganised and a bit unprofessional in some cases. Ultimately, if you can handle this you’ll be fine, but I do have a concern on the property managers they are farming.

Pros

The knowledge gained after being dumped into the pits without any training, ever.

Cons

Abused by management, even publicly. Higher ups are too overwhelmed to do anything about it.
