Morguard

Based on my knowledge and day-to-day work experience in Rockville MD,  I would not recommend this specific location. The atmosphere is extremely cliques' and unprofessional. On-site management allows yelling, loose profanity at co-workers, loud music throughhout the workday, dancing around the office, unprofessional work attire like mini-skirts with over the knee boots as well as a plethora of gossip about how awful management is in conjunction with other in-office rumors. The gossip starts as soon as your 1st day of work even if you directly informed colleagues that you do not want to get involve. At that point you are ostracized and set-up to fail. I was excluded from chat-groups, and after-work hangouts, behind closed door conversation and over heard management and colleagues speaking in a derogatory manner about myself and each other. None of them personally like each other or their jobs and from what I witnessed, 
they bad-mouth and despise helping residents who reside at Fenestra. You will not be able to focus on your hired job duties because they are always short-staff due to a high-turnover and there is not any time to focus on specific tasks. 


If you are looking for a career in multi-family property management, Morguard Management Company is one of the better choices in the industry! As with any job/career, you will work alongside with both good and horrible employees, and your experience can be influenced by your direct supervisors and peers. I was fortunate enough to have awesome leadership teams and was promoted rather quickly a few times. If you work hard, you will stand out, and there are plenty of opportunities to grow within the company. Unfortunately, if you are a horrible employee, you still have good job security. Overall, it was one of the better companies I have worked for and only left because I relocated and no Morguard locations nearby. 

Started day with talking to team about the days goals.I learned how management can really hurt a property.  Management was not leader of the team but a non communicative and condescending individual.
Property manager was not approachable to staff or residents. Spent most time in an office with a closed door.   Staff did not feel supported.  Hardest part of the job was getting materials and supplies needed to perform the job. The most enjoyable part of the job was the appreciation of co-workers, vendors and  residents for doing a great job as a maintenance lead. Unfortunately it became difficult to perform the quality of service I wanted to provide because management had issue with decision making and leadership.

There are genuinely some great people that work for this company, but there are also major problems and a complete disregard for employee happiness and equal treatment. There is no transparency and when issues arise, they are swept under the rug. If you speak up for yourself, you will be retaliated against and not supported. There are not very many opportunities for advancement since there is only one path up through property management, which is great if that is what you want, but the company lacks a variety of available rolls and departments. 

The manager is held accountable for others actions and not performing their job duties you can tell you district manager about the issues you’re having with your employees not performing their job duties and NOTHING gets done to them. They are quick to write the manager up and even if you document your weekly meeting of your expectations of your employees that don’t matter! This is the first company I have ever worked for that the community manager is the one who accountable for others job duties. Let’s not mention that you go home sick but still expect to work even when you have put in your sick time. 

They would rather look away than to fix an issue. They could care less about employees and compensation. They push “3x the rent” but employees don’t even make 3x the rent or even close to it. Management here is terrible and don’t care about anything that happens in the community. Apartments look like old outdated homes that nobody likes. But they build new apartments and buildings with state of the art stuff. They make you do ridiculous work and things for your pay grade. This is the company that hears problems and offers a pizza party to try and make up for it. 

Horrible company with no support from upper management. Worked a two person office for 188 units and couldn't even get sick and be off. They rolled out Yardi accounting without even making sure all property systems were capable. They couldn't get it right and utilities at the properties were getting shut off. They try to give all employees a 3 across the board at evolution time so they do not have to pay increases....You get no kudos with this company; no matter how good you do if you are not one of their favorites or the right demographic.

Never cared about employees concerns and the pay was behind unfair and never showed that they cared. Would repeatedly say they were doing market surveys and looking into our pay, but never followed through. They tell employees they can't talk about their problems with one another about company, and upon termination would not give a legitimate explanation for firing a loyal employee of four years (I'm sure it was about me not keeping quiet about pay). 

What is the best part of working at the company?
Corporate America
Not so good for the people,  employees or residents.

Not really for the people, customer experience very low.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Not people oriented,  people driven or customer focused

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
All about big corporate America

It's a wonderful place to work. AR, AP, Je's, monthly closings,troubleshooting. We transitioned from the Tenman accting system to a new Yardi system. The most challenging was transitioning the 3 apartment's books I was responsible for into a REIT, real estate investment trust.
