Pros
All of my co-workers were awesome. Super easy, I had fun giving people tours and leasing the units, got a new job for my husband (working for tenants who were business owners), and got several job offers myself.
Cons
I literally had a quarter life crisis after working for this company. It was a total bait and switch that nearly cost me my life. My DM, who didn't even live in the district, was an awful bully, "My husband went to college with the CEO, I can say and do whatever I want with zero accountability." Stuff got stowed away and shoved into cabinets whenever she came to visit, until I got things organized. She yelled at me once for shredding sensitive documents from vacated tenants with social security numbers on them, as I was trained to do- insisting that other locations in her district didn't even have shredders, which they did- and telling me that once it goes in the dumpster it's no longer "our liability". She encouraged us to push discounted disc-locks during an online, company-wide meeting, saying they only cost the company x amount each (I took copious notes), and then griped at us a month later that we were abusing it, denying ever saying any such thing. We ended up needing mediation because I was ready to quit, and she was told not to contact me, but she (a woman old enough to have grown kids) called me anyway to remind me of her status in the company and let me know I wasn't "gonna win this". Ultimately I relented, because, other than her, I enjoyed almost everything about my job. The worst part was, at the time, I had pretty bad anxiety with driving. I'd only had my license for a couple of years because of it, and specifically looked for work close to home. I got hired to work at 2 locations close to me, and when she took me to an event at a 3rd, further location, I expressed my relief that I was not commuting there. Lo and behold, she ends up moving me there permanently. Lo and behold, I get cut off on the way to work one morning, and end up smashed into a gaurdrail, being resued by paramedics, with severe head trauma- to this day, I have no memory of the crash itself- and then shortly thereafter she tells me I'm not a good fit. Instead of letting me quit when I wanted, they convinced me stay, just to fire me after they had my replacement lined up- marring my work history. I saw this type of thing happen a couple of times while I was there. I, myself, was a replacement. It seems to be their standard practice. I was depressed and couldn't drive outside of a 5 mile radius for nearly 3 years after that, until I found an amazing company that paid 2.5 times more, respected me, valued me as a human being, and helped me conquer my fears. I will never go back to be treated like trash by a company like Trojan/Andasol.
