Pros

Required hours were only 9am-4pm with hour lunch, starts off kinda easy as well. Fully remote but pushing people back into close offices 1 day off every quarter?

Cons

The company will promise you that you will work your way up to 8-10 properties once you reach a year, this is a blatant lie. I was given 4 properties and had 3 more added within 4 months, all different clients so no ease in reporting monthly. Your manager will also tell you they want you to only have to work 30-35 hours, this is also a lie as they might have the minimum hours stated above but will micromanage you during them and make sure you are always green on Teams. You will also be so overloaded with properties, especially if you get multiple problem properties constantly needing help and 20+ email chains for them a day or if they are cash poor. You will not receive much for training other than a couple videos that make no sense when they do not have you practically train with them, you're also given an Excel sheet to just figure out the questions and no real depth into the processes. There is absolutely no room for growth unless you want to become a senior in 3-4 years . You are also underpaid here massively, they will offer you $50k and will admit to underpaying you for your work. Other property management companies will start staff at 60-65k. Benefits are not better here than other companies, you will only benefit by using this as a stepping stone or if you plan to life here for 10+ years for the sabbatical.

Pros

-Great networking opportunities. -Good IT support. -Great benifits. -Great employee housing discount and housing opportunities. -Commissions will make your paycheck worth it.

Cons

-Management is broad and impersonal. You may feel like a number. -Your workload can be a lot at times. if you work well under pressure, you'd succeed here. -The leasing season is not year round meaning you will have slow months and you will have good ones. Save in the good months to get through the slow ones. -High turnover. Resilience will get you far. -It's rare that you get your weekends at a company like this.
