Beztak

Management is not there for the employee or the residents. Its all about money and how much they can get in their pockets. Corporate is not listening to their staff or current residents, on their thoughts of service to them, and what they need. 
Corporate is cutting staff hrs to stay under budget, when that budget needs to be bigger, for the right care and services to be provided to their residents. Following corporate Beztak mission is as follows right from your website- Our mission is twofold: To create and sustain long term value and excellence in product quality, and to enrich the lives of those we serve.
Product quality is lacking big time, and life enrichment is lacking also. The facility can do a lot better for what the residents pay in monthly rates
This is also from your website for your core values- 
Our Core Values
EXCELLENT.
 ETHICAL.
EFFECTIVE.
How is poor care, poorly paid employees, not happy employees excellent care. How is cutting hrs, and staff, and activities, effective in life enrichment.  Why do you have your management team speak up there concerns for them to be blown out the window and ignored.  
This is a residential community that needs higher IQ services and needs from the staff. You want a good steady staff to stay and work. Pay them well and treat them fairly.  Stop cutting corners to save money. 
Cutting the hrs last minute to stay under budget, not notifying your staff, especially during the holidays, expecting them to stick around for a few weeks just so corporate can stay under the budget.  Cutting staff hrs, but corporate continues to receive their salaries with no cutbacks for them not effective or ethical.  
Residents at the facility are not getting the care they deserve or need due to staffing issues.  
Food at the facility is poor, when it should be star quality with restaurant grade. When you hear the residents complain about the food, it must be bad. Memory care get leftovers of food, and it should be all the same food throughout the whole building with independent, memory and assisted living areas.  
Corporate needs to listen to what the medical side staff have to say for excellent care and what they need. Employees need support.  Beztak you can do better!

I don’t normally leave reviews because they are rarely utilized for improvement. They come off as angry and disgruntled, which is not the purpose  of this review. It is meant to reach those who can cause change for the devoted hardcore team members and colleagues that deserve these things to improve. 

This company has terrible support and leadership. It’s actually the worst I have  experienced in my 10 plus years of working in this industry and that’s actually saying a lot!  They have completely forgotten the site teams importance and contribution to their success. I have heard that it is different for the sites that are owner managed but my experience is from a fee managed perspective.

The RM has no experience and thinks it’s her job to micro manage the things that don’t matter, while causing constant discourse between the on-site teams and fellow colleagues. Beztak has far too much of a disconnect between the site employees allowing a RM to be the only person, as a point of contact. The current RM offers no feedback or leadership skills whatsoever. Her technique is to communicate about you and your colleagues to one another rather than addressing her concerns directly to the team member to allow them to improve. She consistently makes unnecessary comments about each of us to one another acting as if it is us that are failing her in someway. She has spoke very horrible from moment one about  Beztak, the ownership group and this particular groups senior Vice President, which is someone who is very respected within the company. Beztak, ownership and employees are so far removed from one another that it is actually doing them all a major disservice by allowing one person to determine, manipulate and assess matters that should not be solely opinion based and left up to only her. The inconsistencies and inexperience she exhibits is frankly irresponsible, liable and leaves everyone involved very vulnerable. I have not only personally experienced discrimination myself but observed it practiced openly with my colleagues. It’s actually a shame to see a company with so much potential overlook something that is so easily attainable and necessary. It is going to end up being a very costly mistake. 

My day-to-day responsibilities include managing prospect and resident communications, scheduling and conducting tours, preparing lease documentation, and supporting application and renewal workflows across multiple systems. The role requires balancing competing priorities, responding to time-sensitive needs, and maintaining accuracy in a fast-paced environment. The position also requires weekend availability, including Sundays, to ensure consistent coverage and service for prospects and residents.

This role has strengthened my adaptability, time management, and ability to remain effective within a demanding schedule. Navigating evolving processes, technology updates, and extended availability expectations has reinforced my resilience and commitment to delivering dependable service.

I feel recognized and valued for my contributions and professionalism. As the organization continues to evolve, expectations around coverage and flexibility have encouraged me to be proactive, self-directed, and solution-oriented in managing my workload.

The workplace culture is performance-driven and fast-moving. While many comparable properties operate on reduced schedules, our team maintains expanded availability to meet operational goals, requiring a high level of commitment, adaptability, and consistency from staff.

The most challenging aspect has been maintaining work-life balance while adapting to frequent system and process changes alongside weekend coverage expectations. Successfully managing these demands requires ongoing flexibility and strong personal organization.

The most rewarding part of the role is supporting prospects and residents directly, helping individuals find a home, providing clarity, and contributing to a positive living experience. Building relationships and knowing my work has a direct impact on community success remains the most fulfilling aspect of the position.

Most properties will have flexible scheduling, which is nice. You'll have benefits as well. 

Basically you'll lease apartments and make a small bonus for doing so... For me it was generally between $40-$60 per lease..

Some properties will pay you for renewals, some will not.

A leasing consultant will generally start at $11.00 - $13.00 an hour..

Beztak Properties are open 7 days a week and always until at least 6pm. The properties I worked at were always open from at least 10am - 6pm, every day.. Weekdays obviously started at 9am. Some properties have a couple days of being open till 7pm.

- - - Management has no sense of direction, they hardly care about their employees. Management is much more worried about their residents and making sure their properties look good and meet standards.

- - - Employees will get no quarterly reviews, they'll just hope you'll keep working at the same hourly rate you make. There's no motivation because management doesn't give any hope for potential raises or promotions. If you quit they'll just hire someone cheaper.

I was transferred multiple times without real explanation.

Management also doesn't care if you make less money while being transferred, they will even transfer you as far from your home as possible if they want too.

The properties are open way too long on Sundays, it's super slow and is a negative for the business being open so long 7 days a week.

Management of employees was my biggest issue, no sense of direction or hope for advancement, etc.

Overall my experience was below average... Nice job if you're content with doing the same thing over and over with little hope for a raise or promotion.

Felt like a child working with Beztak, they treat you like one. I know people that work in the industry and have great experiences... Property management is nice, actually, just don't work with Beztak or McKinley.

You're welcome.

Overall this position taught me a lot. I learned how tall the corporate ladder really can be. I also learned that once people climb to the top it doesn't matter what happens to the people they can no longer see below. I worked with this company for 9 months, 6 of which I truly considered why I even stayed employed under such a profit-driven business. I ended my employment with the company after coming forward with the poor conditions that myself and other employees were held to; specifically the fraudulent living conditions of the apartments that were considered luxury and a consultant in the office. I had began working with the company's H.R. representative and told her I had a lot of ongoing issues in the workplace, but due to lack of stable management and friendship within I could not trust my bosses with these matters as they have truly swept it all under the rug prior to my addressing it higher. From the very beginning I was clear that I wanted full disclosure, although after being promised that, it was not respected. Soon enough, I was surprised and brought in and questioned by the exact people I had reported. They questioned me for over an hour and deflected any blame and any "accusations" as they called it. They then offered to move me to another property, and suggested that I could not keep up with the "demographic of their residence.

I have worked a few years here at Beztak, and I can honestly say it is one of the greatest places that I've ever worked. You get dental, vision, and medical benefits after 30 days. You get prorated vacation during the first year of hire, after one year(or less) you get around three weeks vacation which is basically unheard of for one year of service. It is true that your regionals, property managers, co-workers may change that's because Beztak promotes within all the time, myself personally I've been asked to be put on lease-ups at multiple properties in different States and for that I have been compensated extremely well. I've had great relationships with my co-workers, property managers and regional managers, also the vice president of the company personally told me if I ever needed anything to reach out to her. I can only speak for myself, once again Beztak, has truly been good to me. I hope this helps someone who is seeking a career and not just a job.

During my work time as a Service Manager I was taking care for 2 properties next to each other (230 Apt) by myself without any help. The management doesn't keep their promises. During 3 months working period the regional manager was promising to hire other technicians, but they didn't. I used to work every weekend as an On Call Technician, and management didn't even posted open position to hire new technician. Property manager was rude and disrespectful, using very unprofessional language and giving incorrect directions witch was out of safety policy.    
On the top of all thees poor management I want to add that I had an incident, I hurt mt right hand at work and 20 days Property Manager and regional Manager didn't send me to the doctor and telling me that if i want to see a doctor I have to pay out of my pocket. finally I called to HR department and they send me to see a doctor. 
 DON'T TRUST   MANAGEMENT PROMISES.

The regional and property manager only cares about winning the awards for keeping the property under budget as well as all properties for regional. They promise pay raises but won't give them. They now order so few parts they run out and can't go to home depot to finish a hot water heater or are many units vacant waiting for parts. Service employees were awesome but burnt out because they under staff and over work you. They also watch you like kids. I would get stuff dumped on me faster than I could do them because management couldn't dish it out right or didn't want to work.
Note look at the the reviews all poor starts are for one city which is mainly one regional. So others probably not so bad. You will be worked hard but not like your head is cut off in this city. It's hard to get out of the regionals property. But it you do people are happier. The property I was at people were seeing the cost cutting. I am now at a competitor and it's so much better. Like night and day.

Unless you want to be made to be the “fault guy” run. There is a serve disconnect between corporate and communities located outside of Michigan. In my employment I NEVER met more than one regional- no VP nothing. And she left not to a shortly after me being hired. Thats to say I had multiple RMs during my short employment. There is no support, procedure, or guidance offered from above. I have never seen something quite like it. The communities have amazing potential with no guidance offered to make the communities succeed. My only intention is to offer a warning where a community sees high turn over it will not change and cooperate/upper management is not interested in changing it. They circulate through people with no shame. If you enjoy working in property management to bring kindness or honesty to your residents and success to your investors/owners then RUN.

This particular company, rate appearances very high, however, they do not place enough value on their residents or employees.  They are currently on the 6th Executive Director (in the past 2 years), have went through 4 Activity Directors, 3 Executive Chefs, 16 Dining Room Managers and about 200 Kitchen Staff.....and the list goes on.  They are "always" understaffed" (management typically doesn't pick up the slack, that is up to the already overworked employees)

The one truly positive aspect to this company are its' residents.  You will fall in love with all their unique characters, their little quirks and that you have just gained 100 grandparents.  What a shame that they live in such a high cost environment, but cannot return the favor, by giving them a well-staffed, harmonious environment in their golden years.
