Pros

Opportunity to build relationships with some great board members. Sink or swim experience makes you better prepared at your next real job.

Cons

They make promises in the interview for flexible schedules, 40 hrs a week, work from home opportunities& hands on training, HA! I didn't get any training w/ my director the first 2 wks. They micromanage, and the catty gossip in the office is worst than middle school girls! Upper management plays favorites & doesn't have a clue how to lead successfully. Long hours, very low pay for the industry, insurance is crap & high! Lost 27 properties and 18 community managers in 2017.

Pros

They take good care of the office people

Cons

Field workers are second hand citizens. Nepotism by language. Promote people that don't have the skill sets to do the job. The people that have the common sense to be leadership at this point don't want the responsibility anymore. What does that say?
