Pros

Unlike the giant auto companies that I've worked for in the past (GM, ThyssenKrupp Automotive), Sun seems to be much more open-minded and diverse and has a friendlier vibe. I'm guessing its relatively small size of several thousand is why it can have a more flexible, modern culture. As a technical writer there, I had the pleasure of working with the upper echelon of leadership, and I found the vast majority of them to be easygoing, communicative, and helpful.

Cons

The only downside I noticed is that people shift from one position to another with surprising speed, plus there seemed to be a lot of departmental rearranging and physically moving from one floor to another (they occupy several floors within the same building). But this is probably part and parcel of not being a staid, old-fashioned company.

Pros

Sun Communities is an outstanding company to work for. The managers and co workers are great here. They truly care about the employees and there is a balance of work and personal life. I am not stressed out when I go home and don't dread getting up in the morning coming in. That's a plus for me. The work is not that hard but interesting. It does get extremely busy but they make up for it will all the perks that we get. Overall a great company!

Cons

Have goals to work towards. If you want to move up you have to apply to a different position. There is not a lot of opportunities in current positions meaning if you are a CSR there is no CSR II. You have to leave the dept. that you are in to advance. Training on new software could be better as well.

Pros

Great people, great job. I really enjoyed working there for two years. It was one of my favorite jobs I ever had.

Cons

I try not to be a negative person, but there are definitely things management could have done better. The company needs serious improvement in learning and development.
