Pros

- You get to wear jeans and semi-casual clothes to work - Kaiser Permanente as a health care option - The branding is cute - Housing discount

Cons

Property management groups notoriously underpay their employees with commission structure in mind. Prometheus, however, takes it one step further. They cut your wages for the commission (only $100 per lease, many PMC are doing percentages of the base rent, equaling far more than $100 a lease), AND they cut your wage again in the name of "free health care." How is it free if you're cutting my hourly rate for the health care coverage? They always promise that they are revisiting the wages, but they are still consistently the lowest paying PMC in the area. Many other PMC's are now offering the same benefits as Prometheus AND they aren't cutting their employee wages. On top of all of that, I haven't taken a state mandated 10-minute break since beginning here, because they love to understaff their teams. I go into each day not knowing if I will be able to even take my lunch break in its entirety, because you are expected to have your life revolve around this job. As a Neighbor Ambassador, you can expect to do the job of leasing, resident relations, maintenance, and more, and still get told you're being paid what you deserve. Prometheus is also introducing this concept of "one team," which is another way of saying they are reducing staffing drastically, spreading people a lot thinner, without increasing the base wages.

Prometheus Real Estate Group Response

Hi there. First, thank you for sharing your Promethean experience. Secondly, know that everything we are about to share is not intended to be lip service but truly comes from a place of wanting to get it right. Your feedback is incredibly important to us, and we appreciate knowing what is not working for you. Along with our annual Engagement survey, we hold peer Focus Groups and Roundtables and encourage our Prometheans to talk with their managers about important topics. We are glad to hear that you feel comfortable going to your manager with any concerns, even if we may not have a ready solution. This is a unique period in our history and industry, and how we operate has been changing over the last 18 months. We hope to see a stabilization soon so we can right-size our teams, as running slim is not how we typically operate. We hear your frustrations with OneTeam, and trust us when we say our Operations team is actively looking into these concerns. You are correct that Prometheus offers 100% employer-paid Medical, Dental, and Vision coverage for Prometheans and their dependents. However, during this pandemic we have not issued any pay cuts. In fact, pay was increased for our Field Prometheans, and we kept the semi-annual bonus structure intact. Not letting go of a single Promethean due to the pandemic is a victory we are incredibly proud of too. It is highly concerning that you have not been allowed to or encouraged to take proper breaks throughout the day. Would you be willing to reach out directly to Promethean Services? We need to know more before we can make this right.

Pros

I have been with Prometheus for five years, and I can honestly say it has been an incredibly rewarding experience. From day one, I’ve had the opportunity to work alongside some of the most genuine, supportive, and knowledgeable professionals in the industry. The collaborative culture and strong team dynamic make it a place where people truly enjoy working together. One of the things I value most about Prometheus is its commitment to diversity, inclusion, and employee well-being. The benefits are exceptional, and the company consistently invests in its people. Processes and procedures are clear, well-organized, and easy to navigate, with resources readily available whenever guidance is needed. Another standout aspect of the organization is its leadership. Senior leaders are approachable, accessible, and genuinely care about employee feedback. Whenever I’ve reached out with questions or concerns, I’ve received thoughtful, helpful support. Prometheus also offers outstanding opportunities for growth and development. Whether you're looking to advance your career, explore new roles, or experience a change of environment, there are countless opportunities. Most importantly, Prometheus has always made me feel valued, supported, and invested in. It’s a company that truly cares about its employees and makes them feel like an important part of its future.

Cons

None to note, my overall experience with Prometheus has been positive.

Pros

Prometheus has a really helpful structure in place for just about everything you do. If you ever forget how to complete a task or just need a quick refresher, there are step by step POP guides you can easily reference, which makes things much more manageable day to day. They are also very focused on giving back to the neighborhood, with volunteer opportunities happening throughout the year. It creates a strong sense of purpose beyond just the day to day work. Another thing that stands out is staffing. Teams are typically well supported, which helps prevent burnout and allows everyone to stay balanced and set up for success.

Cons

So far, loving it over here!
