FOURMIDABLE

In the past 7 years I have worked for four different management companies due to a change in ownership. Although the shortest time has been with Fourmidable the experience has been the best. The first thing I noticed about Fourmidable after speaking with persons from the corporate office is that I did not have that sense of dread and impending doom one typically has during a company change. Upper management seems to genuinely care about their employees having a sense of appreciation and a healthy work/life balance. They do not come off unapproachable or so disconnected with reality that their goals for your property are not attainable. Its almost as if they WANT employees to be happy AND successful??? Crazy right?! There has been times that communication has been frustratingly below average and no one seems to know the answer or the "what to do" but eventually it comes full circle and the issue ends up being resolved. Benefits are wonderful, the people are great to work with. I hate doing reviews because I don't want to jinx myself but it has to be said that the way this company treats its employees should be how all employees should be treated. 

It has been such a long time since I worked for The Fourmidable Group so that is what my previous answers reflect. I enjoyed working  for TFG, our supervisor was real supportive in our productivity, accuracy and encouraging team efforts. Training that utilized Steven Covey's principles such as Reflective Listening and Win/Win technique improving interpersonal skills; stress management and benefits of meditation.

There was always plenty of work to be done,could get stressful at  times especially at year end. I learned how to process invoices, utility payments, manage property tax files,run various reports and effective communication skills. I had opportunities for advancement and participation in volunteer events. It was a great place to work.

I have worked in property management for over 15 years and this by far is the worst company I've ever worked for. The culture is no opportunity for advancement. Also, when you  have an issue and take it to H R, she goes and tells the person that you complained about. This is extremely unprofessional  and childish like we are in high school. If you are seeking employment do not send your resume here, you will be very disappointed. Even the corporate office has a high turn around in terms of  employees. If the corporate has a high turnover the chances of you having stability is highly unlikely.

I was the Executive Director at a Fourmidable property for 3 1/2 years.  By far the best company I've worked for in my 13 years as an administrator. The number one thing that sets Fourmidable apart from other companies is the culture they create for their associates. The culture is truly driven by their CEO and President who are two of the most approachable and engaged professionals that's I've experienced in my career. It's truly a great organization to be a part of.

Was all good at first. I was the only black guy on the staff and one of my white co workers stole out of a unit and i was accused with nothing leading to me being the culprit. Later on that day it came to the light it was a white co worker and no apology or anything was given. Put in for a vacation 3 months before i wanted to take. They waited until a week before to decline it. I was fired two weeks later

Work-life balance
It's ok but not great on pay or raises. I worked there for two and a half years and never gotten a raise. Will mess up your pay.

Pay & benefits
Benefits not all that great

Job security and advancement
It's just that

Management
Poorly as far as I can tell, especially in my last six months

Culture
It's just a simple company

Overall
Formidable Group is not what it's cracked up to be.  They're not good on giving raises or listening to employees. The benefits aren't that great unless you pay into your on insurance.

The job was literally on the job training. They say its self-explanatory but what they did tell you was the consequences that comes with the territory. Don't ask too many questions and be mindful of who you discuss issues with in the company as well as outside of the company. Keep a record of EVERYTHING. The hardest part of the job is when those you reached out to stab you in the back, even tried to make you the "fall guy" for their mistakes.  Always due your diligence before working with any employer.

Fourmidable is a new chapter in my career. So many helpful teammates to reach out to if I need I have questions or concerns. They recently took over the property I work at. The company has so many resources available to support our staff. Looking forward to many years with my new work family.

Wonderful team - Everyone had common goals and shared in the success of a property. No bus throwing we got it done as a team. Lots of training and tools to better our skills. The owners respect and appreciate the employees. I would say sense getting back into the job search this is a huge difference I have seen. Some companies don't appreciate the employee and I know from working with this company this is huge.
