      Pros

      I feel like I actually have a seat at the table, and my input matters to all I interact with. There's a massive support system for just about anything you can encounter and having a link to site forms and operating procedures is life-changing so I don't have to go through several parties to obtain something I should be able to get myself. I've not seen any kind of "Distant" management where things are swept under the rug and hidden from senior management. Everyone has a "How can I help" attitude rather than the typical "Why can't we do XYZ", helping from such a distance it feels disconnected. I'm impressed by how open, communicative, and structured Monarch has been. No PMC is perfect by any means, but when your employer encourages you to be the best version of yourself while simultaneously recognizing you're not able to solve every problem in a 24 hour timeframe, the feeling of empowerment extends farther than any others I've worked for prior to.

      Cons

      None that I've seen yet.

      Thank you for taking the time to leave a review of your experience working with Monarch. We are thrilled to hear that you feel empowered and supported in your role.

        Pros

        They truly care about their employees and their assets.

        Cons

        The only con I have is that they had to sell the property I am working at so I can't work with them anymore.

        Thank you for taking the time to share your experience working with Monarch. It's great to hear that you felt valued and cared for as an employee, and that the company took good care of its assets. It's understandable that you are disappointed about the company having to sell the property you were working at, and we appreciate your honest feedback.

          Pros

          I have worked for monarch for just over a year and am loving it! Everyone has been incredibly helpful and supportive onsite and at the corporate level. I could tell right away that they invest in their employees intentionally and have learned so much on account of that. There is a broad range of perks and benefits that are really cool and appeal to everyone. They fully staff their sites, provide all the necessary resources to succeed and genuinely care about the residents.

          Cons

          Although it has only been a year, I have no complaints so far!

            Pros

            I have been in property management for 9 years but only with Monarch for 8 months. From my first day I have never had a team or company like I have found with Monarch. There is always someone there to help you and support you. Any challenge I may have found in my new position I know my co-works on any level will be here to support me. I always feel like there is some who can help not only myself but anyone on my team.

            Cons

            The SOPs can be a lot - some are hard to understand and follow. Some do not give enough information on a step by step process.

            Thank you for sharing your thoughts about your experience with Monarch. We're thrilled to hear that you've found our team to be supportive and helpful since joining us eight months ago. At Monarch, we believe in providing our employees with the necessary tools and resources to succeed in their roles.

                Pros

                This is a fine job if you need extra income for a 2 person earning enough for a family. I definitely could not support myself alone with this salary without being broke all the time, and if I had to support myself and my two teenagers, we would be living on streets. Hahah which is hilarious since I work for an apartment complex!

                Cons

                Salary is not sustainable in this day and age. I have to door dash 3-5 nights a week to pay the bills! In return for this, there is no work/life balance. I’m going back to school to get a degree.

                Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback on your experience working with Monarch. We are pleased to hear that your employment has provided additional income, yet we regret to learn that your current salary is inadequate. We acknowledge the challenges that arise with managing living expenses, especially in today's economic climate. We value and appreciate your openness in sharing your experience with us, and we will carefully consider your comments as we continue to evaluate our compensation policies. We encourage you to explore professional development opportunities as well. Pursuing a degree or additional training can facilitate career advancement and enhance your financial situation. We extend our best wishes and support to you in your studies. We appreciate your contributions as a valuable member of our team, and we remain available to address any other concerns you may have.

                    Pros

                    None if you want to come here and be discriminated on for being black, gay, and trans. Come here. Not only did they fire a previous black, gay male, they fired me who is a black, lesbian woman, and then turned around and fired my black trans bestfriend, all at the same property in a two year span. I don’t need an explanation because I can read between the lines. Anything inappropriate pertaining to my sexuality and the color of my skin that could be said to me, was said to me on a regular basis. I was once even told that my beautiful curly black hair looks like a mop. So if you want to come here and get treated, like an animal because of the color of your skin. Monarch investments is the place that’ll give you that treatment.

                    Cons

                    Everything. Everything this company has to offer is a con. I’m warning you don’t do it.

                    We are truly sorry to hear about the negative experience you had while working with us. Discrimination of any kind is unacceptable and we take these allegations very seriously. We would like to thoroughly investigate this matter and ensure that all of our employees are treated with the respect and dignity they deserve. We strongly believe in valuing diversity and inclusivity, and we do not tolerate any behavior that suggests otherwise. Our mission is to provide a comfortable and welcoming environment for all of our employees. We are committed to addressing these issues and improving our communication channels in the future. Thank you for bringing this matter to our attention. We are open to further communication and would like to work towards resolving this issue in a positive and constructive manner.

                      Did i just shoot my foot today?? I had an interview and the HR asked me whats my current salary and how much im expecting in the role im applying for. I told her im on above 50s right now and Im looking for mid 60s to 70s. She said perfect! Did I undersell my self? I have 17 yrs of experience in retail, commercial ant mortgage banking. I well prepared how to answer this question but didnt happened as planned. The HR talks so fast that i got caught off guard.

                      Interviewing at Goldman Sachs as a Workforce Specialist. Did the HR screening and then interviewed with direct manager + another specialist- behavioral questions/experience. Called me the next day to interview with Workforce Management Supervisor. I didn’t see much info but when I did Google I saw that it could either be a “fit” interview, or more technical. Any insight on what I might expect? 😭 Still in school and would die to just get in with GS to transition over later.

                      I have applied for a Graduate Financial Planning Analyst & and I have been invited for an assessment& interview, but when I looked back on the JD I have just noticed that they ask for a 2:1 degree , but I have a 2:2 ( due to some personal issues I had 3rd year) However in my CV the I didn’t mention my grade and during the application process I wasn’t asked. What do I do now? Just let the hiring manager know about directly or mention it during the interview first thing? Whats best solution?
