Disrespectful executives full of cronyism

Pros

The main office building in Southfield Michigan is nice and they take care of main HQ people much better than the field employees. Parking is easy.

Cons

Major cronyism at the executive level and upper management. If you don't keep your head down and stroke their egos you will be beaten, bullied, and made persona non grata. Beware IT, HR,and Accounting - they are the worse! The execs lie and they know it and laugh. Instead of dealing with the root problems they just move people around or get rid of them.

Pros

I've been very happy working at Sun Communities! I enjoy the culture here, which has been fun and friendly but also professional. Upper management has been genial and training has gone very well. For the most part, I am given clear direction and have not experienced any micro-management. All issues have been dealt with appropriately. Lastly, there have been some very nice perks like the main office's "Double-Wide Cafe," trips, occasional bonuses, etc.

Cons

Our company has expanded in recent months and there have been some "growing pains." Everyone's workload has increased and while they are hiring new people, I feel like some better pre-planning could have ameliorated some of the workload.
