Eskay Management

What is the best part of working at the company?
I have worked in property management for over 25 years. I began working with Eskay in January of 2025 and the company is great to work for. This is the first management company that I have worked with that allows the Manager to be in control of their property and make the decisions best suited for the property and the residents. Property Management can be difficult when the corporate office has complete control and does not know the residents and their different needs. It can be hard sometimes to explain to people that are not involved in the daily activities the importance of what may seem to be "little things". Eskay promotes a safe and healthy environment to work in and when needing help from the corporate office, there is always someone you can reach out to.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
The most stressful part of the job would be keeping everyone satisfied and happy as the cost of living increases.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
It is a very fast paced environment at some properties, and I do work at one that is very demanding at times. My team on property is great. We all have the same goals for our residents and work to keep everyone happy. Property Managers in Greenwood that work for Eskay Management all work together to help one another when needed and if we need to reach out to corporate, they are always supportive.

Lack of management skills, unfair treatment of employees and the inability to appropriately process emotions in a mature and respectful way are the key factors to note about this job. 

Job security is scarce. It has been stated by multiple employees that management will look for invalid reasons to fire you if you disagree with him or challenge him in any way, thus making the turnover rate shockingly high. 

Workplace culture is very hostile. If you are not a social and personable being, this will negatively effect you with management. While working there, multiple threats were made by tenants to our staff and management still allowed tenants to stay on the property while staff had to continue to interact with the threatening tenants.

Expect to be relied on by management tremendously. You will get many calls for absurd requests, while you are actively busy and working, that can simply be taken care of by management (ie; meeting suppliers on property to retrieve a box or two, sign a paper for shipments, order parts, etc.).

Management requires maintenance employees to switch off every other week and be on 24 hour call for those 7 days. Employees receive NO COMPENSATION for travel time or gas spent. NO OVERTIME is allowed as well so you must cut hours during the week and hope you planned out your hours correctly to make 40, if you obtain any on-call hours.

This job is not worth the stress.

I wanted to speak about the negatives this company is receiving. I have worked for them for nearly 7 years and there has been much growth in the field as in the office. No one likes change and I for one will own that but, I also know that conforming, no matter how much you dislike it, will only be the best for you. Working for this company is definitely different from other management companies and this is because they want their properties under their watch, not ours. We are accountable in all jobs we do so by walking off a job only shows immaturity and lack of professionalism. To write the garbage I am reading is even more so showing the real person behind the keyboard. I am happy in the position I have and actually have a license to do it and I guess that is why I take the care I have in my properties. 
Please, if you want a decent position with a company that does most of the work for you this is the place! Give it a try, it will not be bad unless YOU make it that way!! 
All they want is for you to turn your units and get your vacancies down...Not that hard if you apply yourself!!! 
Good luck to all of you that have given such rotten tomatoes to Eskay but I for one will tip my glass and say cheers!!!


By far, the absolute worst company I’ve ever worked for in my life. You get absolutely zero benefits. None. No insurance, no bonuses, no nothing. Corporate is disorganized and have absolutely no idea what it means to run a property. They get their 35+ holidays a year while the people running their properties get 5. No raises. No appreciation for anything. They don’t care about their employees in the slightest. That being said, the only positive I can say is that they were okay with me going to my doctors appointments once a month. That’s about it. They don’t pay their vendors. They don’t let you keep stock of anything you need. They go the cheap and easy route for everything. They don’t care about code violations. They just don’t care about anything. If the property is at 100% occupancy and there are 20 work orders pending because they’re too cheap to order parts or order the correct parts, they’re fine with that. 

What is the best part of working at the company?
The freedom to use my personal and industry experience to make decisions that positively impact my residents and my property owners
 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
There is always something going wrong... but that is why we are here and it gives us the opportunity to minimize the negatives that are inevitable.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Things are fast paced with many responsibilities to deal with.  You should be ready to hold yourself accountable and also be held accountable for the success of the projects entrusted to you regardless of your position.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
I rarely have the same day twice... From resident interaction to maintenance requests to vendor management, there is always something to do now and something ready for you to do after that.

Working here has been a challenging experience. The company offers no benefits, and compensation is well below industry standards, they DO NOT like to pay for overtime and it’s ALWAYS questioned despite increasing responsibilities. There’s little to no recognition for hard work, and management continues to pile on more tasks, even though the team is already severely understaffed.

Operationally, there are serious concerns — vendors often go unpaid or are paid late, which creates tension and reputational issues. This creates a stressful work environment where employees are expected to make up for systemic failures beyond their control.

Overall, it feels like the company prioritizes cutting costs over supporting its staff or maintaining professional relationships. I would not recommend this workplace to others unless major changes are made.

Every day involves tackling the many different aspects of managing our different entities & it is a unique work load depending on what crops up.
We run a tight ship when it comes to managing our properties  & the office atmosphere is always very pleasant & warm.
I've genuinely learned many invaluable skills & tips from my work experience here.
In my opinion the hardest part of my workload is making sure nothing ever gets overlooked & that everything is done in an efficient, timely manner.
What I enjoy most about my job is the daily interactions with our various employees, along with the sense of accomplishment I get when a report or heavy workload  is done satisfactorily. There's nothing quite like that feeling!


Eskay Management is incredible. From the beginning, I’ve felt supported and valued as part of the team. Leadership is top-notch, always fostering an environment where employees and their properties can thrive. The team truly cares about the success of each property, and that sense of dedication is reflected in everything we do.
The company has a strong commitment to professional growth and development. They ensure that you have the tools and resources needed to succeed, while also encouraging a healthy work-life balance. It’s clear that they care not only about the operational side but also about the well-being of their staff. I really appreciate the positive, collaborative culture here – it makes going to work every day enjoyable.


I've been working with Eskay for the past four years, and it has truly been a rewarding experience. From day one, the leadership team has been supportive, professional, and committed to both employee growth and client satisfaction. As a property manager, I've been given the tools, training, and trust to succeed, while also feeling like my contributions are valued. 

It's clear that the company priorities integrity, communication, and long-term success for both employees and clients. I'm proud to be part of a company that genuinely cares about the communities it manages and the people it serves. Thank you to the awesome office staff for all you do! Looking forward to more years ahead. 

I love working at Eskay Management for a few different reasons.
For starters, I have great reps in the corporate office and we are good friends by now. They truly care about me and go above and beyond to make sure I have everything I need.
Also, they pay pretty well and I got a raise less than 1 year in!
I love giving prospects tours and speaking to tenants and addressing their concerns.
I would say the hardest part of my job is making sure that nothing gets overlooked or forgotten.
I really think that they value employees and recognize hard work and it shows!!
