Sares-Regis Group

I worked there for 3 months. During this time I was the Manager, Assistant Manager, Leasing Agent and Maintenance. I had no staff just loaner people who helped and did what they wanted to do. We had day to day duties in addition to renovations that were started.  I wasn't trained in any aspect of what was due when or the processes of SRG. I was given the help of another extremely stressed manager who just did the work for me.  She was awesome and so was the help I got but it was not exactly helpful. I would do my manager duties after hours and weekends.  But it wasn't enough.  After 3 months the regionals boss came in and let me go.  Due to a higher up wanting a change because he was getting heat from the owners.  Everyone is so stressed and over worked it is unbelievable. I worked 3 weeks straight at one time.  I had my husband help and fix the pool since I didn't have maintenance. The community is High Maintenance! I was threatened to get sued due to the pool daily. So he helped and put in so many hours. No thanks. I think if the ownership thinks the property is so easy they should go work there for a week. See how much they get done without a staff. Main concern is leasing.  They were highest priced and oldest community in the area. We were constantly trying to over analyze rents instead of letting me just lease. Everything is a fire there.  I am very disappointed in the lack of understanding and time to get things put together for this community.  Just as I was getting things in line and have a staff for a whole 3 weeks I get let go.  I wonder who is next?

Sares Regis is the top Property Management company! They are very true to their mission and core values. They support and value their employees and provide empowerment to their teams so they are prepared and successful. Sares Regis strives on excelling their employees and work hard to be able to hire within for new opportunities. I have learned and have grown professionally and personally since working with Sares Regis. I have been worked hard and been offered every bit of resources, training in house and outside training with the support of SRG, to be able to improve, enhance and gain new skills/experiences. This has been a major role in my development and promotions from Leasing Consultant to Property Manager within the company over the last 7years.

Currently working at a Sares-Regis apartment community within the Bay Area and I have not been here long but it has become increasingly apparent of the toxicity within the workplace. The onsite property manager has no care in the world and lets his subordinates do whatever they please without any repercussions. My co-workers have absolutely disgusting attitudes and only have a facade of friendliness. They moan and groan at just the thought of having to do actual work and are incapable of being productive. The workplace culture is to do the bare minimum to just get by without being noticed of what a sloppy job they are truly doing. I genuinely feel bad for residents of this apartment that they are subjected to such mismanagement.

Great work environment that allows you to develop new skills relevant to the industry by attending classes on the industry topics.

Advancement opportunities: Not so much based on your work. As long as you are part of the inner group and buddy up to the regional managers you will be promoted and sometimes get to pick your property. The "Advancement opportunities" are assigned based on bff's status not so much on your performance. If you are looking for recognition with no advancement this is the place to be NorCal Sare-Regis Group. 
Had to leave the company for advancement after being tired of being passed for people with lesser experience.... but with BFF's

Fast paced, little direct supervision,  employees will be thrown under the bus for company mistakes in order to save face with a client

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
salary employees are on call 24/7, little work life balance depending on expectations of client

I was lucky to have a rockstar team at my location. We built each other up and celebrated each other's success. The first year was so great but it wasn't as great for the last 2 years before my property sold due to regional management change. Sometimes you just get a bad apple in the mix but luckily corporate was eventually able to realize this and the regional was terminated just before my property sold. Hoping Sares-Regis can get back to fabulous like it used to be. I was very happy with my job and works have stayed if there had been another location for me to go to. 

SRG has all the rah-rah events and brochures about how everyone is fulfilled and happy within their company, but truly every person I met that works there is so deeply depressed. Property management wears you down and SRG does not offer anything to their employees besides empty promises. I often asked for resources to help me get better at my job, advance my career, and get more support for when things went wrong, but got none. They are expanding in the Northwest way too quickly, and don't have a support system in place to do so. The regional manager is way over her head and operates in a constant panic. Avoid.

When I first began working at SRG it was great. The office was friendly, encouraging and appreciative. I transfered out to a better position and I enjoyed it at first. I got a new Supervisor and Manager and things went south. When your hourly pay and benefits equal out to better pay then people above you at higher position. Well they find ways to get rid of you or force you to quit. I was professional about it, put in my 2 weeks and found a better job. I do get paid less, but peace of mind and my mental health is priceless.

What is the best part of working at the company?
Horrible managers, no accountability for horrific actions, nor training or employee empowerment 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
No security for employees. Worried of being r-ped or beaten by customers. Manager would never listen to our safety even with repeated requests. 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Fend for yourself. Show up no matter what condition you are in.
