Pros

Opportunity to work with cross-functional partners and on-site Operations leaders who truly want to make an impact on the industry and drive change/success.

Cons

VC backer/owners hold all decision making power, with little input from those who are actually doing the work/analysis. I (and many, many others) felt increasingly frustrated as this relationship played out - so many opportunities for easy wins and areas of change , but our recommendations were consistently vetoed. Sentral Leadership continually "refines" their roadmap/strategy; it's obvious there is no set strategy or roadmap to speak of. This resulted in Sr. Director/Director/Manager level associates spinning our wheels, working tirelessly, and ultimately getting nowhere. Couple this with the end of 2022 layoffs, remaining Home Team associates attempting to band-aid and backfill, and non-existent efforts to merge newly onboarded Align Residential associates onto the team. It's no surprise that tenured associates resigned in early 2023 and continue to do so - what do you expect? And FYI - Sentral has a 2023 OKR specifically tied to increasing Glassdoor reviews. The new influx of 5 star reviews on this platform is curious.

Pros

They pay really well, have built an attractive brand and the 100% health paid benefits are amazing.

Cons

Lack of clarity around their value proposition and what their brand story is started showing up in gaping holes last year....and remains completely unclear even after a recent acquisition. Their culture is now extremely toxic and continues to show signs of getting worse, from the decision to layoff over half the corporate staff a week before Christmas to save a buck to continued turnover on the leadership team....with good leaders being cut and sycophantic ones remaining. To say they don’t care about their employees or fixing the underlying issues that need to be addressed in order for the company to operate successfully would be an understatement. Telling a good story about generating revenue trumps everything. Even if its not entirely accurate. Giving any sort of constructive feedback = you are a troublemaker and it will be the demise of your job. They say they welcome feedback and help identifying areas of improvement but the sheer number of people that have been let go after speaking up paints an entirely different story.

Pros

Any good review of this company was asked by their boss to write it. There is no pros this is a company run by humans with no experience who will run your building into the ground if given the opportunity. Then they will smile in your face but avoid you if you have an actual problem. Don’t believe any 5 star review. they will hire anyone but the right person as long as the new hire says yes to every nonsensical demand. And they don’t care about turnover or quality of life of any employee.

Cons

HR will say sorry for their completely out of line behavior but they will not fix the problems they are creating!! It’s run by a board who just watches numbers and is waiting to flip this set of numbers to the next as soon as it’s been in the positive long enough. They will mistreat you and then say it’s your fault. They will withhold information and “perks” of the job until it services them. I was asked to attend a meeting with a supervisor and they just didn’t show up the whole day without saying anything! (pretty common for Sentral) No respect was ever given one time from any level at this company. Unless you are a part of the “in” group of traveling supervisors who assume they have all the knowledge and answers. You are on your own! I have never in my life felt this much disrespect and lack of care from a business.
