Funny how a lot of positive reviews happened at the same time...

Pros

Nice location, mostly good residents, opportunity to build your own team and once that happens, things run pretty smooth. No pros on upper management and HR. Would give zero stars if they let me.....

Cons

Untrusting of employees, always thinking they are stealing. No work/home balance with the ridiculous goals they expect us to achieve. Time off is laughable, we are expected to work their "paid holidays" because we don't close ever, even if that means missing church because someone wants to see a home that they will never buy because of the awful interest rates offered by the banking partners. Oh and upper management in the main office is nothing but a boys club of who is who and the rest of us are nobodies.

Horrible Pay - below standard.

Pros

Lots of inspirational quotes sent out many times per week.....LOL , so that when you look at your paycheck you won't feel so under appreciated. Tons of new hire announcements (waste of time and space for those that have real work to do) due to rotating door at Sun.

Cons

Not competitive with pay. Executives do not see past the end of their nose. Takes time and money to invest in training someone and then have them build community relationships with residents, yet they do nothing to ensure retention. Take a lesson from Costco or other companies that retain employees. Should you interview at Sun ask what their annual raises are.......low to non- existent. Am a current employee but hope to be former very soon.
