Pros

The customers; amount of pto (paid time off) available immediately.

Not transparent; operate in secret; cheat their employees out of bonuses; minimal health insurance; decisions based on who the district and/or regional managers "like" the best.

Pros

Retail hours are ok, no over time. You only see your boss a few times a month. The company ain't going out of business any time.

Cons

So many! To start they expect for one person to run the office and all the facility, from customer service to collections,sales,janitor, security. greedy greedy upper management, while we make them tons of money $30-40 thousand a month, they pay property managers about &20 thousand a year yes a year! They focus on SALES but we get nothing as an incentive. Tons of scrips, they have scripts for everything. They do secret shops to make sure we're doing the scripts. You are expected to force customers to buy a $20 lock and $11 Ins and very expensive packing supply's to customers that can barely afford $23 for the first month or you will get fired. You have to clean ficus. and deal with irate customers on daily basis.

Pros

No one is physically standing over you while you work, You can balance your duties over the day how you see fit. Pays decent. You get to work with some great people. And the majority of the customers are wonderful. You can earn PTO for every hour you work. If available you can be lucky enough to get an almost free apartment. ( some strings attached ). Benefit package is decent. If your a multitasker and very flexable, and great at sales with no commission its a great place!

Cons

If your looking to advance in the company you have to be hired at a District Manager level or higher. Turnover is often in most areas. Expectations are to treat the business as it's your own, but the pay doesn't reflect this. If your lucky, you can get a District Manager that knows how to mold you to the goals needed. Sadly they are stretched over an area that entails them to limit the amount of time they have to work with individual employees. Lots of changes and often. You can be praised on the inhale, and demeaned on the exhale. If your looking for a job for a year maybe two it might be the job for you.
