Pros
You’ll move up the ladder fairly quickly
Cons
Most toxic place I have ever worked in my life. There’s no HR so if you have a problem with management, there’s no one to talk to. If you do complain about something, instead of dealing with the issue, they’ll just transfer you to a different property. The turn over is insane, but because of that, you’ll move up pretty quickly because everyone who is above you will probably quit within a year. You don’t get promoted based on your experience or work ethic. You literally will only get promoted based on the length of time you’ve been with the company and if your manager likes you enough to recommend you for the open position. So even if you work harder than your coworkers, if you were hired last, you are promoted last. Most managers believe since they are managers they don’t have to do any work to help you and if you make a mistake you’ll get screamed at. All properties are understaffed because no one wants to work there. If you are an assistant or property manager, you are expected to be available 24/7 and if you request time off you are still expected to have your phone or laptop with you at all times. The way they handled covid was a joke and didn’t even offer the employees who worked through it any bonuses or hazard pay. The owners don’t care about the employees or their residents. Roof leaks, rat infestations, sewage problems are all common but instead of spending the money to fix them, they just move the residents to a new apartment. You’re constantly asked for new ideas to bring in new residents and how to retain the current ones but they shoot down all ideas people have. If you quit or get fired and you live onsite they give you 24 hours to get out, which is why some people stay with the company even though they hate it, they don’t want to lose their home. Don’t work here and if you do, definitely don’t move on-site. The apartments are way overpriced for what they offer and you’ll be miserable the whole time.
