Public Storage provides a lot of opportunities to advance your career.

District manager

Pros

Public Storage is a winning Company with approachable employees at all levels of the organization. Strong bonus programs provide opportunities for all employees in the Company. As a DM, you are able to create and develop your Team. With smaller Teams compared to other District Manager positions with other Companies, you are able to spend more time with each employee to coach, recognize great performances and follow up. DM's get to increase leadership skills, facilitating skills and mentoring skills by working closely with other District Managers and Regional Managers.

Cons

Company provides a lot of perks to the field personnel including full time positions, benefits, annual bonuses and provide apartments to live in as well. Even with these perks, I would like to see more incentives for the employees in the properties at a monthly or quarterly timeframes.

Pros

In the 5 years that I have worked for this company I have been able to earn multiple promotions and oversee 100+ employees while still enjoying raising my 6 and 12 year old kids. This is a retail position that allows you to have and be good at both. Kudos to Public Storage!

Cons

The more that Public Storage can continue to give to our field level employees the better. Public Storage seems to add these perks (benefits, FT hours, end of year bonuses, apartment opportunities, advancement opportunities, etc.) which is ahead of the curve and great but giving out more would strengthen the brand even more.
