- Current Employee, more than 10 years★★★★★
Pros
1) Plenty of opportunities to grow and many locations to choose from 2) Competitive salaries and benefits 3) Job stability and supportive of work/life balance 4) Supportive corporate teams and departments 5) Offers a wide variety of training 6) Utilizes most current technological tools and systems and always looking into improving the efficiency of administrative, maintenance and residential tools 7) Great company culture, in general
Cons
1) Would like to see salary and commission structure/rates more in line with some competitors so that we prevent good employees from leaving for companies that offer more money. On the plus side though, in the years I have been here, I have seen employees that have left, return, so the grass is not always greener on the other side. 2) Would like to see higher employee discounts for apartments
- Current Employee, more than 3 years★★★★★
Pros
Work-life balance, family atmosphere, give back contributions and more.
Cons
There will always be a con no matter where you work so you need to decide if the grass is greener on the other side.

Pros
Nice lower level employees. The HR tries to make it a nice culture. Comfortable hours.
Cons
Low PTO and only unpaid family leave including unpaid 3 months only of leave when you have a child. Seems like a lot of upper management changes. Takes a long time for new ideas to get implemented. A lot of unexpected firing.

Opportunities For Growth Are Endless, Good Benefits, Give E-Rewards For Jobs Well Done!

Pros
So far this has been an amazing experience since day 1. To start of the training was fantastic, they did this amazing 2 day presentation that gave us a view of the company as a whole and the leadership team. Everyone has been so welcoming and ready to assist and guide you to success. The teamwork within my Region is behind phenomenal, feels like you have know everyone for years. Everyone has such a fantastic positive attitude even in these challenging times. The opportunities for career development are like none other I have experienced and I am very excited to be a part of the Essex Family.
Cons
I have no cons to mention, because there are none
