Pros

Very structured corporate office that provides a lot of on-site assistance. Full time management positions offer paid traveling for training conferences. Large budget for on-site transitional improvements.

Cons

Minimal to no growth opportunities to higher level on-site positions or corporate level positions. Large turnover with on-site staff due to little value from NOM in her employees. Difficult, unresponsive regional management that often makes staff feel disrespected and small. Difficult to reach HR department with long response times or no responses at all. Demanding work weeks (7 day work weeks for management) and no additional pay or bonuses- it is an expectation. Little understanding of on-site employees wishing to have a life/time away from work. Decent but not exceptional pay in comparison with industry averages. I would not recommend Scion and am actively searching for a new job with a different student housing company.

Pros

I loved everyone in the office as people. My fellow housing consultants worked together as a team even with our difference and found an effective and efficient way to handle the work load, resident retention and prosects. The commission specials were great when they got raised to more than $5.

Cons

Managment seemed like they need more training on how to manage a TEAM and how to handle any level of stress. There was a lot of passive aggressiveness in the office from management that seemed unnecessary. Which is why I say they need to attend work shops or training course on how to manage teams. They do a good job at their paper work but their job entails more than making contracts and reporting to corporate and vendors. In order to cut the turn over rate they need to act like mature adults and handle situations without attitudes and learn to also take responsibility for their mistakes. If they would make the atmosphere more trusting, open, and honest then they would have a much easier time communicating and resolving issues within the office.
