Pros

I appreciate that if you work hard, produce good numbers, happy clients, etc. then you are recognized and even promoted. its not always about tenure with this company which helps keep fresh talent engaged. I know the Houston region is huge about promoting from within, and to me and many that I speak with, that means so much. Good structure but does allow for us to color outside of the lines to meet the client's unusual requests. I know the Houston leadership cares for their people, from corporate to the onsite teams, and encourage us to make sure we have a work-life balance. I really like that with the size of the company, you can work here, change directions, and have an "evergreen" opportunity while remaining at the same company, earning greater tenure/benefits. One of the things I value the most is the vision of leadership, since I've joined Greystar 7 years ago, I've seen smart, strategic decisions and strategies which have helped to make this company the best I've ever worked and and enjoy the most.

Cons

With it being such a large company, its sometimes a long process to implement changes or see "coming soon" processes. Emails are hard to keep up with sometimes with so many things going on and so many people sending out new initiatives.

Pros

-Great networking opportunities. -Good IT support. -Great benifits. -Great employee housing discount and housing opportunities. -Commissions will make your paycheck worth it.

Cons

-Management is broad and impersonal. You may feel like a number. -Your workload can be a lot at times. if you work well under pressure, you'd succeed here. -The leasing season is not year round meaning you will have slow months and you will have good ones. Save in the good months to get through the slow ones. -High turnover. Resilience will get you far. -It's rare that you get your weekends at a company like this.
