Pros
You will get to work with very experienced real estate professionals
Cons
- Poor work/life balance (I was told "this is not a 9-5 job", expected to work on some weekends and even on PTO on occasion, etc.) - My managers were in constant disagreement - The company culture is antiquated: Everyone dresses up to go into the office, no work from home options, and I was on a team with mostly people 10-20 years older than me. CEO even got on an all hands once and told someone who responded to an engagement survey that their opinion was wrong/they should look elsewhere if this is not for them. - Some of leadership is open to new ideas, while others are stubborn and will not budge on their approach to solving problems - Even if you are given new responsibilities, you will not be awarded with additional compensation. I was given several responsibilities outside of my original job description and met with a 3% annual raise. - Property management team and finance teams are well built and have established processes in place. Other teams are put together on the fly, which causes understaffing issues - Reliance on ad-hoc requests/No time put in to building out sustainable processes: This feeds into the work life balance issue for lower level employees
