Pros

Pretty laid back company. Just do what's expected of you, but do it well. This is an acquisitions company, so there's pretty huge potential for growth. Paid holidays off, pro-rated vacation and sick time with your very first paycheck. Training is long and drawn out, but incredibly thorough. There's always someone to call for help. Home office managers regularly seek out suggestions and complaints from field associates. Every manager, from the stores right up to the HO, are always willing to help and always make you feel like there's no mistake or issue that they won't help you solve.

Cons

The pay is awful and the health insurance is expensive. You have to hound people for payments each month and charge them late fees if they fail to pay. Really think about the economy of the area for which you're applying in. Low economy = more collections calls and late fees = tenants fighting to get late fees waived.

Pros

I have been with this company for about 11 years I worked for treasure island then uncle bobs followed by Life storage & now Extra space working for a new company can sometimes be scary Extra space has made the merger so easy & everyone who works for the company has been so helpful. I have never worked for a company where your DM really cares about you, you are out sick he is checking on you have a family emergency he is making sure everything is ok. My Co-workers are great too, I have never used all my vacation time ever this company makes it possible to do so there is always coverage as family is important to them....Thank you Extra space for helping me get the time I need with my family & loved ones.

Cons

Honestly do not have any with company itself. Only with Insurance If someone is storing a car in a covered space NCC & they have insurance it should not count towards your CPP ( as we are trying to reach goals)
