Pros

The only pro's is that there are set hours.

Cons

very LOW pay for all the hard work that we do. We get treated as if we are stupid by management when they're the ones who need help from us constantly .... You sucker in customers saying that the first month is only a dollar BUT they have to pay a $22 admin fee we have to say insurance is required but it's NOT ! and we have to try to sell them a lock that is $20 dollars ... I was told I only had to work two stores that were close to me but after I took the job they started making me do 80 mile commutes EVERY DAY. You cant drive that far off of the very low money that you make ...You'll be a slave to this company. The bonus scale changed from weekly, to monthly, to quarterly now to YEARLY ! They have this because of such a high turn-over rate because no-one wants to stay when they get suckered into this job. On top of that when you're ready for your bonus management try to cut it down as low as possible so that THEY can get a bigger bonus. Literally all the hard work that property managers and relief managers do the higher ups ( district manager, regional manager etc.) are the ones who get the bonus for it ! All of our hard work and they rack in the money? That isn't right. Do yourself a favor stay as FAR away from this job as possible ...

The company has a strong culture of accountability, collaboration, and continuous improvement, which creates an environment where employees can succeed and make an impact. What excites me most is that Public Storage is in a significant growth phase. It’s an energizing time to be part of the organization, with opportunities to contribute to meaningful initiatives, take on new challenges, and help shape the future of the business. The company continues to invest in its people, processes, and growth strategy, making it an excellent place for those who are looking to develop professionally while being part of a winning team. If you’re looking for a company with strong leadership, career advancement opportunities, and a clear vision for the future, Public Storage is a fantastic place to be.

Cons

Cons: As Public Storage continues to grow, the pace of the business can be very fast. There are often multiple initiatives, priorities, and opportunities happening simultaneously, which requires strong organizational skills and the ability to adapt quickly. Success in this environment depends on being able to effectively prioritize, manage competing demands, and stay focused on the highest-impact work. While the pace can be challenging at times, it also creates tremendous opportunities for growth, learning, and career development.
