HR doesn't care, only Managers matter

Assistant manager

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Salary and benefits are decent.

Cons

The Regionals only care about the Managers. Same with HR. I complained to HR about sex discrimination, hostile work environment and retaliation from my supervisor. No one even responded to my complaint, let alone investigate it! I wrote to the COO John McLaren and he never responded either.

Top heavy, good ole boy network

Rv resort manager

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

I've met some lifelong friends.

Cons

I would have rated Sun at a 5 a few years ago however the oast few years it gone downhill. They have become very top heavy with everyone no being directors. The main office used to support the field but now there is no support. To many directors and VPs beating up on field team members. Sun still can't open its eyes and see they have bad apples but continue to watch managers walkout while undeserving RVPs get promoted or praised. Just like Rome, a collapse is inevitable.

Great structure, people in it terrible.

Community manager

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

As a community manager the pay is very fair, benefits fair, hours required fair, overall work load fair.

Cons

Cronyism among regional level on up. You will get thrown under the bus if you do not hit goals, no matter if your immediate supervisor stands in the way of your every move. They make you live on-site, you never get any rest from tenants or owners.
