Pros

It's nice not working nights.

Cons

The company doesn't car about it's employees. Raises are a joke or non existant. Bonuses get cut smaller every year. Pushing for google reviews is out of control. Pushing for Insurance and locks and being judged on that is unfair. The properties in winter do not get cleared and we are the ones having to handle irate customers, but they still want reviews anyway. People who work hard are not rewarded and people who slack off get away with it all the time. I would not recommend this job to anyone. If you live onsite you take a pay cut, and it would be great as the apt and all utilities are included, but when it comes to raises they do it as a percentage so even if you work like crazy, you get a smaller raise because your pay is less to begin with. You are not paid based on your performance at all.

Cons

Cons: As Public Storage continues to grow, the pace of the business can be very fast. There are often multiple initiatives, priorities, and opportunities happening simultaneously, which requires strong organizational skills and the ability to adapt quickly. Success in this environment depends on being able to effectively prioritize, manage competing demands, and stay focused on the highest-impact work. While the pace can be challenging at times, it also creates tremendous opportunities for growth, learning, and career development.
