Pros
Another employer with health benefits.
Cons
Working onsite at communities has taken a toll on moral over the years. The RS leadership constantly makes adjustments to the leasing bonus plan, decreasing pay and incentives, while increasing the workload and reducing staff. Total disregard for "nonessential employees", such a leasing consultants, maintenance technicians, concierges, etc., while working onsite amid the global pandemic crisis as the corporate office employees and POD's work remotely and safely in the comfort of their home constantly pressuring the "nonessential employees" to do more, do better, exceed lease goals, increase NPS scores, increase Google reviews, etc. The pressure is unreal. Leasing team members are doing triple times the work in order to bring home a decent paycheck. There was once a time leasing consultants could make over $2k as a leasing bonus for 14+ leases, but now with all the changes to the bonus plan, they make approximately $45 per lease. Less pay and more work for a measly $45 bucks per lease? Make it, make sense. Community managers receive no proper training and are unskilled in human relations. The company will only promote employees in "workplace cliques." If you are a quiet, intelligent, and a hard worker, you will NOT get promoted. If you are highly extroverted, a know-it-all, and like to dabble in brown-nosing and gossip, then BINGO, you'll get promoted. Employees who have been at the company for years, who apply for a promotion will most likely not get selected. The company will rather hire external employees, choosing to spend more time, energy, and money in training new hires, rather then give a loyal and committed employee a new opportunity and chance at growing within the company - an employee who will most likely end up having to train the new external hire for a position they were perfectly qualified to receive. Demoralizing.
