Pros

There are no pros working at Equity Residential

Cons

Many upon many cons, To list a few: 1. Psychiatric abuse 2. Nano Management methods 3. Horrible teachers 4. Poor if not absent ethics and zero morals 5. Deficient leadership 6. Very poor educational backgrounds within property management 7. Failure to commit to honesty and any positive foundation of basic values. 8. Lack of team unity, leadership crushes the motivation of their subordinates. 9. The care of tenants is a low priority depending what type of day it is 10. Dehumanization and methods of what is defined under the UDHR as mental or psychological torture. 11. Save the hurt and damage of working here, Its not worth anything they could offer.

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.
