Worst Company Ever! - Community Consultant AvalonBay Communities Employee Review

Pros

Not one pro for this place.

Cons

This company is an absolute joke. The pay was low to start with and then the bonus structure made it even worse. Our base pay was cut, which didn't help because the amount of consultants working made it impossible to get leases. Management just sits there and does nothing. They say they have our back, but they're just looking to get promoted. Everyone here just bends over backwards to move up. Managers are not even close to being qualified and are condescending to all employees. Associate housing is a mess. They treat you worse than a resident and could care less that you're an employee.

Thank you for sharing your perspective with us, and I'm sorry to hear that your experience with AvalonBay has not been a more positive one. The new bonus plan was introduced in response to feedback calling for a more commission-based bonus structure. We recognize that while many have welcomed these changes, not all associates are as receptive and we welcome you to discuss with your region's HR representative and participate in RS compensation surveys so that your feedback can influence any future changes.
