What is the best part of working at the company?
The company overworks their departments by not spreading the work out enough. To say the least I worked with a PM who felt like me and the APM should never get out of our chair. She even commented on me using the restroom… and treated every penny spent on the building and budgets as if she owned this corporation.  Work life balance very unsettling. 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Please be aware of the type of manager you are working with. If they do not find the importance of work life balance, you will not be happy there. 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Very structured, not modern. They are very by the book when it comes to taking time off. You must work at the office, rarely opportunity to work from home if you are on the property management side. 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Sitting at a desk all day.  Very demanding tenants at commercial portfolio. High turnover rate in on site property management.

This is a company who's phylisophy emphasises hard work and dedication, working in a fast pased environment.    

Team building is encourged in each department in the Company's Portfolio.   

Management also gives back to its employees by frequent employee parties and events to reward them for their hard work.
Employees are acknowledged on their Birthdays and reconized for  accomplishments throughout the year. 

The challenge's the company currently faces (in my opinion) is the need to hire more "Middle Management" positons to fill in the gaps between upper and lower management.

My overall experience at CIM has not only met but exceed my expections.

It's a big corporation in billions. Investments, property management  and development. They have properties all over USA and many investors around the world. They buy sell and build constantly. 
The work environment is nice and co workers as well, even thoug you see people all over who you dont even know, people work everywhere in the offices and hallways and small meeting rooms all the time. Some work remotely. 
The company is very busy and there is great amount of work that most people work overtime almost every day, pay is good. 
The company supports and teaches well for new employees to succeed.
But like always something is lacking and part of that is communication.

They have free gym, discounter lunch and free overtime dinners,  and free snacks every day.

Company has some amazing platforms and an expansive, multi-faceted portfolio. However, it is lacking in structure, organization, and employee development. There is high turnover and minimal investment in developing their employees. The history of the company is substantial and they have gentrified, re-purposed, and developed in areas where it has been needed most. Unfortunately their expansive efforts do not yield in a long term devotion. The company is growing and evolving and can be an exciting and challenging environment. That being said, it is not the place for people who are not adaptable to change and the office politics reflect more of a mom and pop culture versus a structured corporate environment.

Coordinate conference rooms shared by 2 different companies while managing all incoming guests, catering, deliveries, and phone calls.
The hardest part is that you learn to multitask to no ends under little to no supervision as you sit in an empty waiting room for 9-10 hours a day. You may receive certain complaint calls about certain things you have very little to no knowledge of company projects that is managed by your company. Colleagues and associates are however, very pleasing and nice.

Total disconnect within multiple departments, little to no training, then chastised when you ask questions, skeleton crew/over worked and unrealistic expectations and you are "volunt-told" to do tasks outside of your reach and expect to comply without questions.AND, they've discontinued accrued vacation to avoid paying out if you quit and spun it with "unlimited vacation" that's not really unlimited (total joke). 

Lastly,  the employee turn-over rate is insane!  They just hire "warm bodies" to fill the chair...most employees hired don't last a year (if that)

What is the best part of working at the company?
My PM and Director of Property Management 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
My portfolio consisted of 500 properties  so whenever we did yearly billing or rent letters, it was alot especially with a deadline.  

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Pretty good. They have employee organizations that are DEI - diversity, equity and inclusion. I was involved  

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Respond to emails/calls from my PM's, tenants and vendors. Work on contracts or whatever is needed.

 Toxic work environment. Policies change too frequently. Lots of drama amongst on-site team. Unorganized and management is out of touch with the needs of their community. They pay very well but it comes with lots of stress. Also, the leasing agent position is pointless because all in office employees can lease  which often times leads to conflicts with resident relations staff, leasing Managers or even  APM’s or PM’s for commissions that should only be going to leasing professionals. Worst management company I ever worked for.  

The job could be a nice one, but because they are so unorganized and can’t keep no workers makes it hard. I have never worked in such a terrible environment. Every day you got a new job to do on top of the 10 you already have. The upper management is terrible, they blame you for their mess ups, which puts more pressure on the workers. Stay away!! The DMV has so many more good companies to work for.
