Fun Summer Job - Landscaper CP Development Employee Review

- dog friendly office - small family owned -very relaxing at times -great pay -bonuses -free food -understanding management -gas reimbursement -fun staff -rotating weekends off

Just have to get used to down time in the winter, but it picks back up !

Free food some days. Pay is okay for a small business. Weekends are nice because the owner's usually aren't there so people are less stressed.

Where to start. First of all, Regent Square is NOT an actual neighborhood. It is just the area of the city where Edgewood, Swissvale, Squirrel Hill and Wilkinsburg come together. A lot of their apartments, which are advertised as Regent Square, are in Wilkinsburg. If you are not familiar with the city...let me explain why this is a problem. Marketing an area as Regent Square when it is really Wilkinsburg is misleading. The part of Regent Square towards Squirrel Hill, Edgewood and Swissvale is nice. Wilkinsburg is an absolute dump and CP Development markets overpriced apartments in this area. The owners of this company are, for lack of better words, crazy. Peter can be rather nice although he gives the impression that he thinks everyone is stupid. It is his personality. Charlie is hands down nuts. He is awkward. He doesn't listen to ideas. He screams at tenants on the phone. He makes things way harder than they have to be. He is horrible at explaining things and just as bad comprehending things. The apartments are gross. They claim they renovate but the renovations are so poorly done...I do not know if they are any better than original condition. Plus, they are in a terrible area. Pay is okay. Benefits are non existent. No health/dental/eye insurance. Office is disgusting. You work in a shabby old house....in the basement. Constant turnover. People come and think it will be okay...then the true colors show after a few months.
