BG Staffing - BG Multifamily

BG Multifamily is a temporary agency for job placement within an apartment community as a leasing agent or maintenance personnel.  The home office is fantastic and is always willing to try to work with you if you are willing to work with them.  The local BG temp office is caring and understanding and wants you to be successful in this career field, but you have to be proactive and personable. The management at different apartment complexes is a salad bowl of experiences - you never know what the management or the staff at an assignment might be like until you encounter them.  This is how you find out if the fit is right for you or not - you can vote to stay or move on if the assignment you are at is interested in keeping you for more than a few days.  Although BG is fantastic to work with, your assignments may not be very intriguing.  I think it is always nice to be assigned somewhere where the staff thrives on service, excellence, order, and organization - not on trying to do as little as possible as they count the hours and eat chips out of a bag and try to paint their nails while holding a phone.  I enjoy dressing like a professional, acting like a professional, and delivering professional service in a professional environment.  Not all environments are professional.  During several assignments I encountered managers who really do not care about what they do and exhibit a poor attitude and unprofessional adult manners - they bring a bag of drama with them and unpack it in front of you.  I needed a job bad and I was blessed to obtain employment through BG Multifamily in order to put my office experience to work.  The leasing industry is like a revolving door with lots of drama.  If you want something permanent and long-term this might not be for you unless you are emotionally stable and a hard worker who can endure all of the fits people will through at you.  It is not always bad.  I enjoy being able to help residents and sell to prospects.  I just wish I experienced more teamwork and professionalism within apartment staff - that is why BG is awesome - maybe you can find the right fit with a staff at an apartment community.

Here’s a tip . Don’t hold your breath or waste your time . The payroll department is the most unreliable team . Seems like their management lacks common sense or morals . They micro manage and will even go out their way to make you feel like you don’t belong . They will pick and pry into your private life and  Nobody wants. A job where they constantly have to look over their shoulder or feel like their boss is out to get them . Also Pay attention to the smart remarks said and the amount of disrespect that you may hear on the floor . The supervisor there is a negative person , and will make you feel as little as possible with no professionalism at all . And if you are a happy and good person then this position isn’t for you because they don’t like Happy because they consider that type of attitude fake , and don’t bother expressing the amount of disrespect you may receive because you’ll just be told that that’s just who they are and you come to work and not make friends . This is not a place to plant your heels in and make a career this company is more like a pit stop type of job . If you haven’t been with them for years or brown nose your way to the top you can just bet that you’ll feel like your in the mean girls movie . There is no where to go and no where to hide because whoever you go to they will make sure to make your time there the worst experience ever . Every mistake , every error watch your time and cross your t’s because one missed comma and you can find your self in the office with HR being told your performance is failing . But the real problem lays with the supervisor of that team . And if you don’t believe me reach out to the 8 people who use to work for that department that have quit they will tell you they have left because of the disrespect that’s allowed by that mentally and verbally abusive supervisor . I wish any of those who work there the best of luck .

After leaving this company, i soon realized i was making myself sick and exhausting myself for pennies. It was not only a toxic place to work, but the stress levels are high. You have these demanding deadlines with little to no help, and the atmosphere tension is high due to the rules and guidelines in place. they dictate your lunch, when you can come and go, they monitor your personal and professional life, and they will try to cut any type of friendships with in the company. I found myself to become angry to have to work in an environment where looking behind my shoulder was an everyday thing, the word teamwork is loosely thrown around but rarely followed. if you are in the business to stroke egos and work with blinders on and be trained like a pet and not a human sure this place is for you. kindness is not this companies best part. I would also recommend anybody who looks for a career with this company look else where. i can only say that because there really is no room for growth at all. They don't offer any educational information on how to grow within. I really took no knowledge of my employment here with me to my next venture. i was disappointed on professionalism of this company. They are the type of company that will snoop into your private life, dig deep into your Facebook and will find any need or necessity to call you in to discuss it weather its relevant or not. to say the least i am more than positive that they do not follow the state regulation on protected class under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act. my word of advise to anybody looking to apply do your homework and i wish you the best of luck. 

it speaks volumes when a companies turn around on a certain department is very high.

I started with this company When i was 22 Years old. Jan Gile and Rick Penn Owned this company. It was small and only 4 people working in our office. I was young and able to experience its growth from it being a small company to it being a large company. It was a a place you could call family. I loved going to work every day because back in the 90's people where so grateful to be working. I loved to help them find proper employment. As the years went by it seemed like the company was loosing it's basic values of helping those with the needs and became more about the money and lost the focus on it's original purpose. I left in 99 due to illnesses in my family that required me to take care of grandparents before they passed away. I was asked to come back in 2008 to help bring things back to the basics. I spent all that time in doing so. I also help build and maintain there outer markets as well. In 2012 is when Rick and Jan had gotten bought out by a corporate company. Things changed and with in 3 years that got real greedy not wanting to take care of it's employee's and it's customers. I still continued to help those that need my help until the day they told me they were making changes and to pack my box. Not a heart felt goodbye or thanks for all the years i invested in this company. Then again i take it was a budget issue.If i was asked to go back i probably would just to show them there is someone who cares about it's people and customers.

I have went on assignments as a temp for a couple of months, some places have employees that refuse to teach anything to the temps( though they are very nice)  as they feel like the person may be there to take their job. I have expressed my willingness to learn the business and the majority of time I hear” just answer the phone and chill and make your money 😲” I’m wondering who is not enforcing the places that use BG as a temp service not to train the temps? That is the reason I have not decided to give full availability due to the fact that no one seems to want to train you on how to do the bigger things. Most places have you to do the tasks that they don’t want to do. I started this because I really want to learn the business and generate clientele by building rep-or with residents to keep property at full capacity…A  lot of the residents seem to like me upon meeting me, I’ve even went to a couple of properties where a couple of them asked if I was going to stay or if I was going to be gone the next day because they had so many different temps. I feel that BG is a great company however, some of the assignments are so far away from home. I would just love to be placed in an atmosphere where there is at least someone there willing to teach me how to do leases since I have become familiar with everything else except for Yardi. 

They contacted me, and I told them I was not interested in an employment agency, because I have had bad experiences with them in the past. They said they were different. I told them I was not interested in any assignment more than a few miles away, but they kept offering me a job about 12 miles away, that was supposed to last about a month. It was data entry. I didn't really want it, but they assured me that if I didn't care for it, I didn't have to stay. I stayed a month, but that was all I could take. The job was going to go on for a few more weeks. They never called me for anything again. I thought that was unfair. I did my part in sticking out the month they said this job would last. This is exactly why I don't like employment agencies. Fortunately, I have found a better employment agency to work with who has a variety of assignments for anybody with basic skills, close by. However, maybe for somebody who is looking for something different, they can work for you. But if you are looking for a variety of close by assignments, this is NOT the place to look. They don't have that type of clientele.

The south Houston office is a mess. The front desk never knows what they're talking about and will blatantly lie to your face if they don't know the answer. You have to basically harass them just to get information from someone that actually knows what is going on. 

I was signed up and waiting for Leasing 101 training class dates for MONTHS. It took me and another friend that has been with them for years to harass the office to find out when the dates were. Then when I showed up for class after being told over the phone that I was on the list, I was told by one receptionist that there was no training, then another one came up and said "actually its tomorrow", then another woman came out and said "they only allow 20 people and class is full today." I wouldn't budge so she left and came back with the address for the class ACROSS TOWN and said "hope you can make It in time." I made It and that class was nowhere near full. That office is a mess.

They will lose your timecards no matter which approved method you use to send It to them. They LOVE giving out same day assignments. I've worked at most 16 hours a week at $10/hr.

I worked for this company and was a temp leasing agent for them for about 6 months. I worked at 3 properties and got great reviews at all
3. The bad part is one property was horrible to work at meaning  I had to do work that perm people didn't want to do , the manager
at the property was not responsible most of the time one of the leasing agents was lazy and a corporate person used a remake towards me that was offensive. The leasing manager - resident manager- asst manager were all cool and all backed up my allegations to BG staffing of the things going on there. The agency
didn't do follow up all the time. They didn't try hard to position me at another property. Then when I was laid off I collected unemployment and then found job on my own. When I notified agency that I was no longer going to work for them that I found job on my own they changed. They denied my unemployment several times. They were
not  honest about their policies and I ended up paying over $800.00 back in benefits. They don't screen clients or properties well and when you leave them they have different attitude.

Bad management and leadership. The manager and assistant manager you cant trust, they talk behind your back. No one can ever answer a question as to why your pay is incorrect. Policies change everyday, which leads to NO one knowing what is going on and your in the dark until you need something that has just changed. No formal training, they literally throw you in and let you drown and talk down to you because your not doing it right. Leadership is condescending. They will tell you one thing but its honestly not correct, anything to keep you working there but they lie to your face.  Manager was VERY unprofessional. Cursing around the office all the time, which set the tone for others to do so. Manager would bring child to work, leave early or work from home. Very negative working environment. Your job never stops. You work 8-5 but find yourself working till 10 or 11pm at night. Revolving door that continues to spin. You will see someone start then quit the next day.

I had to wear a few hats, use old processes that did not work for the high volume recruiting efforts. The Dallas Branch was unprofessional and was under staffed and under paid. Recruiters did not have time to recruit. Managers were not onsite or would not make themselves present to show leadership. I felt as if I was not trained on their processes properly which caused mistakes on employees checks and other issues. Recruiters had to be responsible for all office cleaning including some janitorial (bathrooms, vacuum, clean windows, throw out trash and pick up trash) to save the branch money for our commission check which I felt was the companies responsibility to hire a janitorial person or company to assist and not be taken out of our commission. 

Pro- Branch celebrates once a month to outings. Branch will buy office lunch however not enough food for the whole branch and your team does not decide what food to purchase.
