Pros

Sun is a great company to wok for. I love that 9 years ago I started out as an Office Coordinator at a small community and today I am a Regional VP. Sun believes in there employees and gives them the tools to succeed. They have an excellent development plan and it helps you achieve your career goals. They don't look for the degree on the wall, they look at your potential. I work hard at my job but Sun rewards their employees and they make me want to do the best job that I can for the company.

Cons

While Sun is increasing the pay for groundskeeper and office coordinators, I feel they are still a little behind in that area. I would like to bring in office coordinators at a higher pay rate so that we have less turnover and we can continue to grow our bench.

Pros

I want to write this review with the full disclosure that I have loved working with Sun for many years. I have made very good money and I am grateful for that. I have learned a ton and this job has grown and stretched me to be better.

Cons

You will always be fighting in this job. Fighting with residents to comply with rules, fighting with underwriting to clear files , fighting with unrelistic expectation, fighting with HR, having commitments changed last minute. Nothing is easy in this company no one want to take ownership at main office level they constantly push you off to someone else. The people that make the rules have never been property managers so they have no idea the stress they put on all staff from the top down! My maintenance guys that bust there behinds and move mountains everyday only to be torn down, my OC getting snide comments from the RVP ,being talked down to when they have a question up at the main office or getting condescending remarks from concierge when they ask for help. Every manager knows that HR does not protect the managers so that leave us with little ability to attempt to rectify any issues. A ton of double standards so in the end you are set up to fail.

The rate of pay is great.

Cons

Withheld bonuses because they made a bad purchase and needed to cover themselves for the share holders.
