Not worth the stress

Pros

They are putting money into the property. Benefits are not bad.

Cons

Upper Management is rude, unhelpful, unorganized and demeaning. Micromanages every aspect of your day. I have never had another employer try to make me feel stupid. They are quick to point out flaws as a new employee and do not balance it with any positive recognition.

Pros

Pay is considered one of, if not the best within the industry. It is a very business/result-driven company that will reward you greatly if you put in the work. Great support system as well from everyone that I work with from the cleaning staff to the VP of the company. The opportunity to grow within the company is limitless and I am the perfect example for this. I started off as a part-time concierge with Related while finishing school and was then immediately hired as a full-time concierge upon graduating. Then after 10 months, I was hired as a leasing consultant for two buildings despite having no leasing/sales experiences. The fact that they risk hiring someone like me who did not possess the qualifications for the leasing position (at the time) is what truly separates Related from all the other comparable companies! Many of my colleagues that I work with daily all started from the bottom as a doorman and concierge, and they are now Office Manager and Assistant General Manager. It has been officially 1 year now for me and my managers are so glad that they gave me this chance because of my results. I don't see myself leaving this company anytime soon.

Cons

The amount of work and responsibilities could be overwhelming at times. Most companies will have different people handling specific roles and responsibilities. But at Related, at least where I work, we are all expected to do or at least try to handle/assist with everything. For example, I would often have to handle/assist with management duties such as addressing resident issues, billing, invoices, etc. With all that said, this con could also be a blessing in disguise because it truly prepares you for anything especially if you want to grow and explore other career opportunities within the company.

Pros

Enjoyed working with some of the resident managers and other departments like Finance and Accounts payable.

Cons

HR truly DOES NOT care about employees, they do not dedicate time to employees and attempt to fire employees before there are Unionized. I should know, I worked in HR! Talented HR that care about their employees will not stay at this company - they know their worth. Expect to work long hours and weekends whether corporate or non-corporate position. No Life Balance!
