Pros

Some really great people work there. Pay is competitive.

Cons

It's all about making money, that is the number one priority of the company. Some upper management is unethical. NO work-life balance. You work 2 Saturdays a month - property managers do not get another day off those 6-day weeks. If your property is doing poorly, you will be expected to work Sundays as well (is that supposed to motivate me?) Sales consultants are always working off the clock. Property managers work very long days - some will be at the office until 10pm at night. (No thank you) You have to do a lot of cleaning - I have had to clean toilets, clean up spiders, roaches, dust, mold, poop, etc. DISGUSTING. There is no Human Resources Department, so there is no one on the side of the employee. Residents are very unhappy with First Billing, so you are always having to deal with that. Properties are highly understaffed, both in technicians and sales consultants. The sales pressure is unreal! You must meet your goals, no exceptions - and the goals are unrealistic. Some upper management (I won't say names) talked down to employees - I mean using curse words, calling them names, etc. - but there is no Human Resources Department Doesn't feel like you have job security - the turnover is high all around for all levels. Training program is a hot mess - you are definitely not prepared for your role. Some of their systems are so antiquated that your forget it's 2013. The marketing strategy is cheap and ineffective. If you work for the company, don't post your resume on other job boards because they are looking! I think the CEO and other executives are just out of touch with what's going on with their properties. Just read the reviews from actual tenants of The Connor Group Properties. This is what you will have to deal with every day. I know this review sounds harsh, but I am not some disgruntled employee. This is the truth, and I just advise you to really think it through before accepting a position with this company.

Pros

Pay is very competitive, benefits are great.

Cons

The recruitment department will sell you on a dream of better schedule and work life balance. They target retail managers specifically. My work life balance was horrible. To be successful expect to work 60-70 hour work weeks. The culture boasts do the right thing, but I have witnessed management doing absolutely anything but that. Stay away... it’s not worth it.

Pros

They will tell you “people count”, “it will take you a year to learn it all” “it’s ok to make mistakes”but that’s all fake.

Cons

All of their “people count culture” is fake. They don’t care about development or giving you honest feedback. They will throw you out like yesterday’s trash if you do or say anything they don’t agree with. If you ever work here watch your back and trust no one! And you’ll hear all about the “high turnover” it’s not because people quit.
