Arnel Management Reviews

Pros

If you do well at your job, you can get promoted within a couple months.

Cons

Arnel pays less then most residential property management companies and it is harder to get promoted beyond resident manager unless you have a connection at the corporate office. Also, they really focus on sales and numbers and it makes the job more stressful than it needs to be. It is not uncommon for the company to move you around to multiple properties in a short period of time.

Advice to Senior Management

Depending on which property you work at and who your co-workers are, work can be fun, but it can also not be.

Pros

As a Resident Manager you get a 2+2 for free, Business Manager you get a 2+1 for free, and other discounts available for other positions with the company.

Cons

You do not get a annual performance review and salary increase for managers. Resident Managers do not have control of their own budget. Get ready to move frequently within one of the 19 Arnel properties. Corporate policies change frequently and weekly.

Advice to Senior Management

Stabilize your management at the respective properties and give managers control of their own budget to be able to offer their own incentives. Reward managers for their performance with bonuses or a pay increase to keep them competitive to the rest of the industry.

Pros

to get a free apartment in orange county, which is a great benefit. If you can obtain it, go for it, but you are going to be held to an unrealistic standard unless things have changed since 2008. You may be expected to rent an apartment for $1,500 that was built in 1975 when there is one that was built in 2003 with great amenities down the street for CHEAPER.

Cons

ownership is out of touch with the orange county rental market leading to unrealistic expectations oif the sales force.

Advice to Senior Management

dont try to charge similar prices as an Irvine Company quality apartment, yours are not that nice.
