Pros

- discounted apartment (not much of a discount and they don't allow you any wiggle room even though they know how much they're paying you. You'll just end up giving them your whole paycheck again so I don't recommend living on site) - monthly training classes

Cons

The issue with this company they purchase horrible properties most of the time with a lot of issues and they expect you to fix everything, add new things and keep the old as well as new residents happy. It always ends up being impossible because they give you a low budget and hire people for low pay to try to fix things. Nothing gets done because no one is going to go out their way to do things for these people only care about their money. They have no desire to make you rich or even stable enough to make it so don't work here if that's what your looking for. They do nothing to make their employees want to go out there way for them but they expect so much! If you are a leasing agent, do not expect corporate to have your back for ANYTHING. They will either not return your call or take the sides of management no matter what.

Pros

Most of the people at the executive level and corporate office are “good”, well-intentioned folks. Pay is fair.

Cons

There is a disconnect between corporate and the rank-and-file (onsite) employees. Onsite employees receive zero input on decisions that affect them. It feels like every new blanket policy is designed by people who haven’t been onsite for years (or left it for a reason!) and the policies solve an imaginary problem or small problem specific to only a few properties, which results in ALL onsite employees being burdened with more meaningless tasks to do. A prime example is the new maintenance training modules that force well-qualified maintenance guys to waste hours completing a mandatory course on how to use a multi-meter, when they already know how to use one and have a backlog of 70 service requests to complete. On top of that, Fogelman’s software and web-based tools do the opposite of what technology is supposed to do: They make administrative tasks longer and the onsite teams less productive.
