Culture of Loyalty-But only for Inner Circle - Assistant Manager Hawthorne Residential Partners Employee Review

Pros

I worked at Hawthorne Residential Partners for over two years, starting as a Leasing Specialist and being promoted to Assistant Community Manager. During that time, I gained valuable experience, closed over $3M in sales maintaining an over 50% closing ratio, enjoyed working with my onsite team and formed strong relationships with other ACMs and Leasing Agents.

Cons

Recognition and support from upper management was inconsistent — even high performance did not guarantee acknowledgment or growth. Leadership culture varies widely, and some managers are strong administrators but lack the emotional intelligence needed to inspire and develop teams. This creates high turnover and limits long-term career growth for those not within the company’s “inner circle.” Transfer opportunities are often discouraged or presented as demotions, which makes it difficult for employees who want to stay with the company but need a change in leadership. While the onsite culture can be rewarding, corporate leadership would benefit from listening more closely to exit feedback and addressing the impact of poor management styles.

Pros

- Positive "LIVE IT Culture" - HRP promotes internal growth, I started in Leasing with no experience and within 2 years, I worked my way up to Community Manager. After 4 and a half years on site, I was promoted to Talent Acquisition Specialist at our corporate office. - SO MUCH SUPPORT & TRAINING. You will never feel like you have to figure it all out on your own. - Fun work environment, lots of events, friendly competitions, team building. - HRP promotes healthy work life balance. - Great benefits! A Free year of diaper subscription for new mothers and fathers, fitness reimbursements, high percentage 401K matching, free subscriptions to apps like Noom & Calm and too many more to list here. - THIS COMPANY CARES ABOUT YOU! You are not just a number to them. They care about the employees and the residents. - Annual Leadership Conference - so much fun! It is a great opportunity to connect with other leaders and come back to your site feeling refreshed and excited. - I could go on and on, I love Hawthorne and truly appreciate all that this company has done and how it has helped me to grow personally & professionally.

Cons

- There are a lot of opportunities, which can mean wearing multiple hats.. great for learning, but can be overwhelming at times if you do not reach out to leaders for support and maintain a positive attitude.
