Good but not career at the bottom level.

Pros

Lots of space from the boss, they are not behind you telling you what to do. It gives you some freedom to be a self starter.

Cons

Getting stuck with a poor DM, they can make you love or hate this job. Company changes policies every few months.

Pros

The only pro that I have seen in this job is that there are no nights and you are off every Sunday as a property manager. This company is a good stepping stone since everyone who is hired is a manager no matter their level of competency.

Cons

1. Raises are very small (10 -25cents per hour max) if you get one at all. 2. Hourly pay rate is very small considering all of the duties that you are expected to perform. 3. Public Storage offers no advancement beyond the level of property manager. 4. They constantly change policies and procedures without informing everyone. 5. You have to work every Saturday. 6. Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Years are the only holidays that you will get. 7. They are CHEAP and constantly cut the bonus structure, salaries and hours without warning. 8. They do make necessary repairs or handle other issues in a timely manner. 9. On a corporate level they simply do not care about you. They are greedy and are only worried about their bottom line. 10. There is no real recognition for a job well done. They really focus on the negative. Overall, this is a very negative work environment. Morale is extremely low among the property level staff. Property managers are the only employees who are held accountable for anything. Other employees can get away with doing little or no work, habitually showing up late or calling in frequently. There is no recourse for this because the district manager does not hold everyone accountable and only cares that the work is getting done without caring who is performing the bulk of it.
