Pros

Pay, They pay well but expect you to put your personal life on hold for the company

Cons

They will not train you and then terminate you without notice due to your lack of training. Scumbags everywhere and no direction or caring from upper management. If your thinking about working here do yourself a favor and don't bother.

Pros

I have worked at Greystar for 3.5 years, in two different cities and two different roles on the corporate side. I am overwhelming grateful for the growth potential, mentorship opportunities, and fulfillment I get working for this company. More importantly, I get to bear witness (often in close proximity) to intelligent and capable national leadership. Greystar is a strong force in the multifamily industry, globally, and it’s a force you should want to be apart of. Pros Include: • Favorable Employee Benefits • Competitive Pay • Approachable Leadership, even at the top tiers • Flexible Work Environment- don’t get me wrong, you’ll need to work hard but it doesn’t always mean you need to be in a desk from 9-5 • Minneapolis Team takes time to celebrate wins • If you do good work, you will be recognized • Our size allows us to test pilot the emerging trends and technology in the industry space. • There are a plethora of Analyst and Associate roles that allow you to break into this space even if your relevant work-experience is limited.

Cons

While my 3.5 years has been, overall, favorable. As some of our regions grow quickly, it can place a noticeable strain on our teams, especially at the property-level. While more jobs open than people to fill them, it always seems like someone is covering their own role and part of a vacant one. I hope that normalizes soon and allows us to more intentionally develop our people rather than constantly moving them. • At times, can be overworked • Focus on getting the bottom line at properties, can take away from truly delivering the best quality to residents, depending on the circumstance • Being the largest mgmt. company, we have 10x more processes for things – or so it seems. It’s sort of a necessary evil. • Most of the corporate career openings will be in cities other than Minneapolis. Our office is one of the smallest corporate offices around the country but there are ample openings at any time in cities like Houston, Dallas, Denver, San Francisco, Seattle, etc.
