There's a few things i found enjoyable. I liked most of the people I worked with my manager was amazing on certain days but was (and here's where the bad begins) tied down by the upper management. No one seemed to know what was going on and everything was always a mess with policies and procedures. It felt like everyone was always thinking on there toes, which never gave you confidance in your work because you were told do one thing and then find out you were doing wrong the entire time. The only time you felt it was right was when you had confirmation from an attorney to do anything.  Then there's the pay, it was comparable but to get an actual raise you have to be promoted (which in my position would have been a demotion as most of there properties are old outdated unkempt small nothings ) they make promises but if you don't have it in writing you'll never get it.. would I recommend working there? Yes . Mainly for the experience what you deal with and be exposed is a great experience for your next job. 

The culture is amazing. I enjoy working with everyone in the office. They are all always willing to assist if anyone needs anything. I’ve witnessed nothing less than a supportive culture for on-site staff and maintenance as well. I’ve witnessed team work and support as well as a strong support for work live balance which was really important to me. The owner is in the office ever day working just as hard doing the same duties as the rest of the team and is humble and just as supportive. I’m extremely happy to share my day with this group of people. I’ve been in the industry for 23 years now and company’s know what to say but it’s not usually the case once you’re there. My experience had been better than promised by far. It’s a great feeling to go to work and enjoy the people around you.   

What is the best part of working at the company?
The only thing that was good with this company was Flexibility with schedule.


What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
The don’t support you as a manager, communication with supervisors is not there when needed, when you start to point out things and they don’t like it you are done and they will just ignore you and not work with you,can’t speak up that triggers the owner and he can treat you like your nothing even say bad words when your trying to stand  up for your self .
HR is a joke she is not there for employees she is there to protect the company.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
If you have a good team that is not protected by corporate it can be good.

A typical day is following up on yesterdays duties and making sure that our clientele is taken care of.

I have seen a lot as a property manager in the Portland metro area. Including my fair share of property management companies. Cambridge Real Estate is by far the most amazing company I’ve seen. Not only does the CEO deliver pool chairs on his own. This is a company that actually care about people, both residents and employees and their families. They even have a program to help employees quit smoking when most other companies stress you out so much you start smoking. I did but Cambridge helped me quit.

Overall, my experience with Cambridge was pretty positive. I was a leasing agent that lived on-site at the apartment complex. I got hired after I was already a tenant. My direct supervisor was okay. I think my experience would have been more positive if she was interested in the growth and development of her team. I think she was pulled in too many directions to be honest. The duties of the job were straightforward and enjoyable. It just was quiet and lonely at times because I worked alone in a smaller (65 unit) complex. 

Does not value you as a person. Workload is not reasonable. The typical day is not knowing what property you will be covering. Upper management is not responsive. The hardest part of the job is not being able to help or answer your residents when you don't know the answer, and you are having to wait on upper management to give you that answer and it takes them week(s) for that one answer.  

What is the best part of working at the company?
Rate of pay was fair

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
No contact with people in charge.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
The work environment was extremely stressful. The employees didn’t do their jobs.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Get to work and there is no organization or plans and goals for the day. No team work at all. Bad management

Been with the company going on 3 years as a maintenance tech. I came into the company with no maintenance experience but with construction knowledge and background and the rest just came naturally. The owner is great and my portfolio supervisor always makes me feel appreciated. Allot of inspections working rd, hud properties but overall great place to hone in on skills.
