Pros

Good place to use as a stepping stone to other storage companies. Will can learn on how not to treat employees.

Cons

Horrible work environment. A lot of stress and you are never appreciated. The company is very cheap and shows zero regard for employee safety and well being. Only come here if you can not find a job anywhere else. The turn over here is like a revolving door.

Pros

Fellow employees are easy to get along with

Cons

Work alone 99% of the time, constant moving around, there are several different properties in each district and you are expected to go to them all at one time or another, no matter how far it is to travel. They NEVER want to fix anything, constatnly say we will get to it and never do, they use an unlicensed company for matinence, and the workers that they use for matinence cannot communicate with employees unless you speak spanish.

Pros

Being able to get time off when needed.

Cons

Advertisement stated that I would be working 40 hours a week - in reality it was 35 hours a week. I only worked for the company for 2 months but it became very clear that there was a great deal of disrespect amongst the employees. District meetings were thick with tension and the gossip that occurred on a daily basis was amazing. My property manager would actually have 2 phones on speaker (2 different stores) so they could sit and gossip. There truly is no "team" within this company. It is all about the money and no concern for the employees. Throwing one another "under the bus" seems to be a very active sport at this company. Also the inability to take responsiblity for one's behavior is very prevelant. There is nowhere to eat lunch - maybe a broom closet with a microwave if you are lucky. Other than that, one must eat in his/her vehicle or go to a restaurant. During the summer months, the air conditioner stopped working - the district manager decided not to fix it because of cost and that he considered it the employees' fault that it was not working. at times the office was close to 90 degrees!!
