Abbey Residential

I learned a lot from this company, good and bad, they are a company that will teach you, but they dont really know how to train you properly . When i worked there we had a rotating door for our employees. The office was never fully staffed more than a month at a time (They also don't hire or promote from within). They also had really have a hard time selling homes because of the location Look it up and you will see what i mean, You make $75 dollars a sale and that's if you work on the file from start to finish. If any other leasing consultant works on your file they get automatically half of your $75. Renewals also are not built on how many you do, but how many are renewed overall. SO for example if i did 100 renewals and 20 were done by the rest of the office, everyone is paid the same, They also will shop you like crazy, i was there six months and i was shopped 4 times and the only reason i was because the rest of the leasing staff including the leasing manager did not want to get off there butt to answer the door. I feel like the work is not evenly distributed between the workers of that company and they have a hard time retaining customers because they fail to meet residents needs like fixing pipes or getting rid of roach issues. The company would rather upgrade empty units than fix the ones that are broken. 

Also they would not allow you to use your PTO unless it was scheduled a month in advance. You don't get paid for your PTO if you are let go or quit before the first year is completed with the company. 



The people there are very great people no doubt and no discredit to them as individuals. But the mentality that the company wants for the leasing staff is absurd and sometimes it feels like they really don't care if good people stay or not. They let the bad ones stay and let the great ones go. 

This company is absolutely atrocious. They have the good, the bad and the ugly. Small handful of people starting from the property to upper management and all the way to corporate are great people..SMALL HANDFUL!  The bad and the ugly definitely outweigh the good here. They spout off about policies that are company wide, which are never followed and differ from person to person and property to property. The company is based off of nothing but drama and extremely clique-ish… Are we still in high school? If you’re not brown nosing to right people, you’re going to feel it. The regional supervisor is on a power trip and condescending to personnel. Makes outrageous statements about peoples work ethics but provides zero resources to assist in reaching professional goals for the company. Always threatened with write-ups and terminations. Addressing issues get swept under the rug by upper management but gossip is thrown around so freely to come back full circle to you. Employee turnover is extremely high here, so feeling secure in your position is not a possibility. Employees are expected to give unreasonable expectations and a lot of employees work off the clock to meet those demands. Certain employees in management that do not accept accountability for mistakes and throw others under the bus to save themselves. The stress of working here is just not worth it. 

Abbey Residential is an awesome company to work for! Everyone takes pride in their work and the communities that we own and manage. Our job is to provide excellent communities for our residents and every department works hard to make sure that this continues to stay true. Leadership is open to new ideas and is always seeking growth. I'm excited about the future of the company and to see how much we can grow and improve our current communities and new communities. I have not experienced any cons while working at Abbey. There are items that need updating or adjusting but those items have a plan in place. I'd recommend Abbey Residential to anyone looking for a longterm career with growth opportunities. 

This was the best company I have ever worked for! My property was sold and we had no other properties in our market, otherwise I would still be with them!!. Everyone at the corporate office knew all the employees. You were not just a number. As a manager, we were sent to several different cities for conferences and training. It was a great experience and a lot of fun! I also had a great regional manager that I learned a lot from. They also went above and beyond for me personally when my property was sold. If they ever buy again in this area I will definitely be in touch! :)

I worked at the Abbey at Enclave for a while, and enjoyed working there. The Property Manager was experienced, and was enjoyable to work with. The Regional Manager was around every so often, and when she was, it never felt like she was micro-managing anything. 

The community hosted good, fun events for residents, and the maintenance team was responsive to residents maintenance issues. 

Of all the companies I've worked with in the past, Abbey Residential has been one of the most enjoyable.

Working at Abbey Residential was a deeply disappointing experience. The company culture is heavily influenced by favoritism—those who have personal connections with upper management tend to be protected, even when they violate policies or behave unprofessionally. It creates an environment where accountability is inconsistent and employees without those connections are often overlooked or unsupported. I would not recommend this company to those seeking a fair and respectful workplace.

As long as you kiss your supervisors behind then you are in great shape. The minute that you decide to better yourself or learn more, you should apply somewhere else. Do not think the property manager has your back, because they will always side with the supervisor. Very old equipment, that you will spend to much time repairing, instead of them replacing them after a certain amount of years.

What is the best part of working at the company?
The support that you get from co workers throughout the company. The training for leasing, just over all excellent company.  The benefits are excellent. I wished I could have found this company when I started in the business 34 plus years ago.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Where I worked not that much steess.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Walking in to a good starting day without drama.

The work atmosphere is on the casual side.  Corporate employees work quietly and efficiently.  There are times to work hard and other times to socialize.  Everyone is friendly, family-like. The culture is a balance of business formality sprinkled with family fun. The hardest part of the job is the fast pace, but this is also the most enjoyable aspect. No time to watch a clock for the end of the day.

Run from Abbey , they only care about there numbers. They put anybody in apts just to meet their numbers.
Nothing is confidential 
And Hr doesn't care about you.
Pat you on the back and tell you how good your doing. But it's all fake.
They promote within and the majority of promotions those employees don't know what there doing.
Would not recommend.
