Pros

Decent pay...Although, leasing consultants beware; You make great money on commission about $200 bucks a lease buttttttt if you work at a medium sized property you might get about 8 leases a month = $1600 and you get taxes like crazy on "bonus" pay so you end up with $800! Great company name obviously, people tend to get impressed when you say you work for the all mighty Irvine Company. Good benefits. Btw the average pay for a leasing consultant is $14-15 an hour - not much since they like to hire college graduates.

Cons

You will work every weekend. You will work every Holiday. You will work over time. If you go one week without getting a lease (even if it's slow season and obv not too many people are out looking for apartments) you will feel so much pressure from your manager, your regional manager and even the other managers in your portfolio. Basically they love you when you lease and they treat you horrible if you have one off week. They expect way tooooo much...What do you mean you can't get 5 leases a week, every week? The managers don't do anything! They sit around allll day and pressure you lol instead of picking up the damn phone and making some calls. Ever heard of team work?

Advice to Senior Management

The same perks you give to your corporate employees - pass those on to those who work on site. Why do we work every holiday while you get to stay home with your family? Stop making your leasing consultants stalk their customers, people don't enjoy getting called 5 times and getting 8 emails so stop forcing your leasing consultants to do that!
