Cons
Felt like a bug under a microscope. Management and other coworkers watched when I came in, what I did at my desk, when and how many times I looked at my cell phone, how many times I went to use the bathroom, when I went to lunch, what I ate for lunch and when I left to go home. If you came in 5-8 minutes late, you were warned and then written up. You had a strict schedule of 8-5 and if you decided you wanted to work a different schedule such as work 7:30-4:30 or 8-5 with an hour lunch or 7:30-4:00 or 8:00-4:30 or 8:30-5:00 and take a 30 minute lunch, it wasn't allowed and you got written up if you changed your time. Very strict dress code even for a place where you never met with the tenants or clients! If you needed to go to a doctor's appointment, you had to use a sick day. Of course if you were new, you don't have any sick days for 90 days but yet you are forced to pay for benefits that you cannot use. Don't micromanage your employees so much. Have you noticed you have a high turn over for your support staff? Pay is lower than the market rate. Archaic systems with having to obtain multiple signatures in person instead of using a computer system for approvals. Very old school atmosphere and very cliquey too. Very unfriendly office culture.
