I cannot, in good faith, recommend working here. The years that I logged at Atria were among the worst in my professional career. I felt something was off when I was presented with my compensation package-- the company only provides 6 or 7 paid holidays. This was only the beginning of the lack of work/life balance. My supervisor discouraged taking time off for illness or doctors' appointments. My supervisor and teammates frequently contacted me outside of business hours with non-urgent, non-critical requests they failed to make during the day. Boundaries were nonexistent, even after I explained that I needed evenings as free as possible to spend with my children.
The handful of allies I made during my time at Atria had similar experiences with micromanaging/condescending directors/VPs, teammates who felt emboldened enough to bully or to steal credit, and a general lack of respect/camaraderie. We had our accents mocked, our clothes criticized, our education backgrounds questioned. After comparing notes, we discovered reaching out to HR/other supervisors only made matters worse.
Elitist Support Center employees often spoke negatively about the frontline community workers-- the very people working with and taking care of residents paying premium rental rates for luxury apartments. Typically they mocked their lack of education and begrudgingly created solutions to address knowledge gaps.
