Cons

Poor management. Company does not support growth opportunities. Compensation is terrible compared to comps. Properties are not kept up to the level at which they’d like you to sell.

Pros

Positive relationship with colleagues and vendors* Attempt to make positive changes (recently increased commission pay to $100/lease & renewal that used to be $80) Ability to make own decisions* *depends on factors

Cons

MAA is slow to adapt to modern day salary. Leasing is still paid under $15/hr in MOST regions. APMs are paid no more, or around, $20/hr and PMs could vary from 55k-57k/year starting out. All seem very low compared to other major competitors (Camden, Windsor, Roscoe and Greystar). MAA is starting to consolidate and remove onsite positions (leasing, apm and pm) and combine multiple assets. In theory, this is nice. But reality, it a) removes promotional opportunities to beginner level managers, b) creates more onsite headaches and overworks onsite employees and c) clutters transition. Training in new roles are awful. What was once a one-on-one mentor to trainee environment for new hires is now bulked into a class of 10 or more. For manager training, it has now been converted to Webex/FaceTime chats rather than taking the time to send someone onsite to train in person to get to know your property better. I don't learn this way, and neither do most leaders.
