Pros

I have been working here for a while now, and I can confidently say this is a fantastic company to work for. It’s rare to find an organization that truly balances high-level performance expectations with genuine care for its employees. The benefits package is top-tier, featuring generous time off that is actually encouraged so you can truly recharge. One of my favorite perks is the company's commitment to giving back; they provide a paid day off every year specifically for us to volunteer at a charity of our choice. Beyond the perks, the culture is collaborative, inclusive, and supportive. . The company is invested in the professional growth of its employees. If you are looking for a company that values your contribution, invests in your future, and supports your life outside of the office, I cannot recommend this place enough!

Cons

None that I can think of. It is fast paced and challenging.

Pros

The communities are physically nice

Cons

The biggest problem is the current tour policy is sheer insanity. On-site staff are already burning out by headcount being reduced whenever possible, and on top of it, they have made tours unlimited (5 tours can be booked at once, and this can happen every 30 minutes, even for 1 person working). Leasing agents and on-site staff are going to leave, burn out, continue calling out causing further short staffing. PLEASE do something about this policy before our office staff disintegrates, it is truly awful.
