Streetlights-Residential

StreetLights cares about their employees and challenges people to find ways to build the best apartments possible. The president sends emails every week updating employees on projects and initiatives. There's a monthly meeting to share company news. StreetLights is still young, so there is opportunity to have a voice in the way things are done. Because teams are organized by region, each team member is the go-to for their function (interior design, pre-construction, architecture, development, etc.) in that region. StreetLights has reasonable hours and respects the home life of employees. At no cost to us, every employee is a partner in the deals that they are a part of, sharing in the profit at the sale. StreetLights takes hiring seriously and finds people who work well together, able to discuss respectfully.

-Senior management and HR emphasize an open door policy, but end up using your questions/concerns/comments/ideas against you. 
-Any person in a leadership role is not sufficiently trained and is overworked. They do not have time to train their team nor efficiently delegate work. Some people sit around twiddling their thumbs while others are so overloaded with work, the draw process is delayed. 
-Very much so a "good ol' boys" club mentality regarding promotions and procedures. 
-The extreme lack of communication causes unnecessary work and tension between team members.
-More responsibilities are expected to be executed without be given a choice or fair compensation.
-All these issues are having a rippling effect throughout the company… no functional or relational trust is developing and the turnover rate is getting worse.

What is the best part of working at the company?
The teammates that were working daily in the Jobsite trailer. Good pay. 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Go , go , go, push for heads on beds and having rework that could have been avoided.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Not great with upper management on the construction side but good with development side in most cases.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Fast paced, as expected, but fixing things that other people had messed up and had left the company, seemed to be our fault and not the supervisor’s who should have been checking this out earlier. Oh well it’s construction.

I was an intern here for two months. It was deeply interesting--as this company combines the best aspects of architecture, development, and construction. Work here if you want to be challenged. If you are not a self-starter and need to be managed, then you probably wont have an easy job/time.

Other than that I found that all my questions about everything were respected and answered. I was never yelled at for mistakes, and was encouraged to learn as much as I could in 2 months. The executive team gave me complete time of day and treated me like part of the team right from the get-go.

Not a good place to be an intern. Learning seems limited and even they said that they don't really hire people right after graduation. For the most part everyone is nice and friendly. Be ready to pick up lunch OFTEN for your coworkers that is part of your internship duties even cleaning rooms (wiping, picking up after others etc).

This company has the ability to be a great place to work,  however,  their department managers/controllers/directors have no clue how to manage people. The SLR owners need to hire qualified and competent managers for their employees to see this company's full potential. People don't leave jobs. They leave bad managers.

This company runs through superintendents, chews them up and spits them out.   Not a long term company.   They have to hire new supers all the time because the turn over rate is embarrassing high.   There is zero loyalty for job well done.

After a couple of months or mothering, boss' finally gave me open wire with minor input for changes to process management. Construction and development have taken to scrum concept to hold people and teams accountable.

didnt agree with underhanded activities in some aspects. workers including self were fired for non legitimate reasons. hardest part of job was going along with processes I didnt agree with

StreetLights has a fantastic culture and great people! Since StreetLights is a design-build developer, you get the opportunity to work with many different functions. There is a lot of opportunity for personal growth and development.
