- Current Employee, less than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
Career growth and development support
Cons
Strictly 3rd party manager and past CEO reputation
Thank you for your positive review! We are glad to hear you find the growth and support to be a positive in your career with VG. Please reach out to the People Services department if you have any additional recommendations.
- Former Employee, more than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
Training and Sales development, structure
Cons
Honestly, VG sold me on their company when I was first interviewing. And at first, it wasn't that bad. I had worked in property management for a few years before and nothing had been as structured as VG. But the higher up in rank I became, the more my eyes were opened to the "Upper Management World." And believe me when I say, upper management is seriously in their own world. The gossip and things being said about me behind my back was unbearable. And I am a strong advocate for mental, physical, and emotional health, so I left VG. Tried bringing my concerns to upper management and they made me feel like I was inadequate to do my job. Oh, and don't bother talking to HR. They make you feel like you're being unreasonable and won't believe anything you try to tell them anyways (and here I thought HR was supposed to be unbiased?). Very disappointing experience.

Pros
I have worked for other companies where the lazy get promoted. Not at Village Green. They give you the tools and resources to be successful and your hard work pays off. The site associates are simply amazing- they are the ones who make VG what it is, us Corporate folk are just along for the ride and get to support them! When you are dedicated to your role, people take notice and help support you in your goals. Sure, there are some folks who leave the company (on their own or with a little help) that feel it necessary to make up low reviews, but they are not the majority- VG is a great place to work for a reason!!
Cons
I haven't found a single one yet.

Pros
Solid sales training/experience for those just breaking into the leasing industry.

- Former Employee, more than 10 years★★★★★
Pros
The pay is decent, opportunity to transfer frequently offered and room for growth.
Cons
It's a lot of great things this company offers but if you're not in the " right social circles" within the company, you will never get those opportunities.

- Current Employee, more than 5 years★★★★★
Pros
Work for a company that makes you feel like part of a team. They have really changed since a certain owner sold out, and changed for the better. Very focused on the employee and making work fun and energetic. Promotion from within is huge.
Cons
Sometimes there can be slower seasons that make your commission slim. More work is put on the employee if you are placed at a struggling property.

Many paid holidays, mentorship programs, incredible training and support, opportunities for upward mobility and promotion from within
Cons
sometimes ownership groups don't give the sites the resources they need to reach their full potential/goals, but management does a great job of filling in any gaps and getting the site teams what they need to achieve success.
