Supportive staff creates a sense of belonging, but forms need improvement

Pros

value the professional relationships established with Walden Staff. I have nothing but positive thoughts of each individual. I value the fact that everyone is always willing to help me to reach a positive ending. As a bonus, I have felt extremely valued when Mr. Walden visits and sits with us as a group and tell the most hilarious stories. It truly gives me a sense of belonging.

Cons

Ensure that all forms are writable and user friendly. Some forms never open and writable forms with lines are difficult to navigate because the lines move and shift.

Pros

I like the job site where I work at But like anybody else, we're behind times when it comes to compensation.. The contract is up for renewal in January. The property management loves us.Only would they be appalled knowing what we get paid.

Cons

Promotion from within. The last manager. She didn't know what the security officers, what we did or how we did it. I've been here 4 years and have yet not even asked if I would consider a management job. Like a field supervisor I'm very capable and knowledgeable. How Walden functions? It seems like if you're a popular security officer.They offer them the position before they even look at other people.I jump on that in a heartbeat.If asked, I have so much to give walden, but i'm being withheld because i'm not in the click.
