Pros

Austin is a fun town if you like great food and music but has recently become very expensive. You will walk away with the most valuable experience possible: what not to do.

Cons

The executive leadership simply does not understand the commercial real estate investment business, despite what they claim. There is no transparency into the structure of the investment partnerships or funds. The company is fragmented as to reduce transparency. The CEO/COO reputation is tantamount to that of Dale and Brennan from the movie Step Brothers. There is a common theme permeating delusions of grandeur.

Pros

I've worked for the company for 7 years and have been promoted 3 times. As a Manager of my location, I get to see the business grow to over 80 locations. Feedback from executives makes us feel included in the overall picture. Very consistent employment and provides job stability for me and my family. Apartment provided as part of compensation. Major savings for me and my family.

Cons

There is always room for improvement. The bonus program for managers could be improved more to allow top managers to make even more.

Pros

- Great Co-Workers - New technology and software is added all the time to make things easier - Additional staff has been added and has rounded out the teams - The VPs are making an effort to support their teams - I believe upper management has recognized the need for deeper organization of the company and has hired the right people to propel this company to great heights.

Cons

- Company is slow to pay vendors across the board. - Expectations on deadlines for all departments are different. Some departments do not meet their deadlines thereby delaying other departments. - There is no such thing as personal time with this company. You are expected to respond to emails and phone calls no matter where you are or what time of day it is. When you don't there is always a lecture about "time is of the essence" on all things. - Long hours and lots of work - Not big on providing support staff - Work stations are too small and too close together - Project approvals move slowly
