BECO

BECO Asset Management is a wonderful management company to work for.  A typical day at work is very fast pace with a variety of tasks.  My position requires me to be a jack of all trades along with being a strong team player filling any position needed.  Cross training is very important to BECO, as it should be.  Working for BECO has taught me to be very flexible and has given me the opportunity to grow into a strong assistant manager.  I have also grown to become a strong trainer in operations and sales.  On a day to day basis, I perform everything from filing paperwork to deposit accountings.  Not one day is the same, which may cause for some difficulties.  Even with the challenges, I enjoy what I do and would not change anything.  The opportunities have given me the drive to grow more in my field and hopefully to manage my own property in the near future.  My current team and manager are wonderful and we work well together to get any task completed!

This workplace is hostile, with rampant favoritism and gossip, I bet even this review would be gossip. Management acts superior, not often takes accountability for their mistakes, yet replaces staff instantly for even minor errors. Personal vendettas lead to write-ups, and there’s no structure—new coworkers, rules, and changes are constant. Open door policy is a facade as residents, vendors, and often staff all walk on eggshells. Workers from other properties that came to help even knew  it was chaotic, often referred to as the "cursed property". By the end I was drained to the point that I didn’t even want to show up. Run into any previous worker they’ll tell you all about it. Everyone wasn’t bad though. But my short experience was much like the short story Hansel & Gretel. I’ve never had an experience like this in any job I’ve worked in my life. 

1. Typical Day at work: 8AM to 5PM with an hour break for lunch, (Timing not flexible). Sit in front of 3 screens with your job duties. 
2. What you have learned: Team management is a must, communication is very important in construction, Stick to your basics.
3. Management: Too many people in a single job, job duties change very often, Would rate 6/10.
4. Workplace Culture: Healthy work environment, fun loving employees, but no outdoor fun environment (no team lunch, no weekend get together, outside office almost zero communication) 
5. The hardest part of the job: No flexible timing, strict 8-5 job, No outdoor events, job duties keep switching, management does not consult before switching job titles, Average pay, 50% health benefits, very minimal job-related training provided 
6. The best part of the job: Friendly work environment, good learning experience.

When I was hired I was told I would get a raise after my 90 day probation period. When I had my evaluation they said I would be receiving my raise, but 4 months layer I still didn't have it. I had to turn in my 2 week notice before they finally have it to me. Then when I was told I would hey my annual raise it was the same thing. I was also promised am assistant position, then later told the position has been absolved. They still had me do the job of the assistant without the title or pay. I finally left because I didn't get my bonus due to the fact I was doing another techs work orders because he was so far behind and I didn't get to do a monthly training video which was required. I was never told by my supervisor I had to take it.

I'm a BECO Boomerang! I worked at BECO from 2003-2005 and returned in Feb 2012. I have always said, I would not be where I am today without my first BECO experience. A lot has changed at BECO and it's for the better. I'm really happy working here again! Lately, I've been learning new graphic software programs and increasing my skill level in graphic design. Working in Construction is very exciting. You get to see the property at the start and before you know it, there is an entire community built and you can say, I had a hand in that! The Team at BECO is one of the best teams I've worked on. We work hard but it's very rewarding. The holiday party was a blast, we had great food and prizes!

I enjoy working for BECO because there is a sense of closeness and family. The owners and management are approachable and open to suggestions. The management is professional and treat employees fairly.  If you are seeking a career in construction or apartment leasing or maintenance, this is a good company to work for. They will help you develop your skills with professional development courses or college classes.   

You have to be able to jump right in and perform your job with little guidance and training. Training occurs as you go. Way to improve BECO are: more flexibility to vary work hours or work from home and a more affordable benefits package.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Typical day is nothing more than a normal go to work day. We have a job and we do it.

The effort you put into contributing your motivation, knowledge and experience will determine your success at BECO. This is a business with owner and executive involvement at every level. A mid-size company where towing your own weight while working as part of a team is a requirement. If you are energetic and can handle the constant demand of change and continuous improvement, while wanting to see the results of your labor and be rewarded for them, this is the place for you.

Where do I begin? Beco is an awful company to work for. The owners only care about themselves and not their employees. Don’t let the reviews fool you, notice they are all posted on the same day, they made their employees write good reviews. Employee turn over is outrageous because they treat us like trash. They only care about themselves and see all their employees and throwaways. Stay clear of this company!
