Valiant Residential

My experience working with Valiant was unfortunately far below expectations. The onboarding process was severely lacking; I received virtually no training and was immediately thrust into a demanding role with minimal support. This lack of preparation led to a very challenging start.

My concerns extend beyond the inadequate training. While the advertised salary seemed promising, the reality was significantly different. I consistently worked 60-hour weeks, often without sufficient breaks, yet found that time was frequently deducted from my pay for any absence, even if it was a single day. This practice felt unfair and highly discouraged a healthy work-life balance.

Furthermore, a considerable amount of my time was spent observing training videos on trading strategies that felt entirely irrelevant to my actual job duties. This was not only unproductive but also actively detracted from the time I needed to perform my assigned tasks effectively. The disconnect between the training provided and the actual demands of the role was a major source of frustration.

In conclusion, due to the combination of inadequate training, unreasonable working conditions, and discrepancies in compensation, I strongly advise against seeking employment with Valiant  I hope this feedback can be useful to others considering this company.

Management unstable, poor on-boarding/training (AKA nonexistent). Managers are not given the freedom to run the properties or teams on their own within company guidelines. Corporate/ownership micromanages and restricts teams from working as a whole to achieve success. Pay is fair dependent on experience and property you're employed at. Work/life balance is encouraged but unsustainable given unreasonable deadlines and lack of structure in both the day-to-day operations and big picture- often times projects are dropped on teams last minute and you wind up having to work at home. Management is also very "clique-ish", which I suppose you find anywhere but it definitely goes against what they claim to value as a company. They do not value their employees, so there is a high turnover rate with this company. You are absolutely just a number and if you don't perform PRECISELY how the owner believes things should be done, they'll terminate without a second thought; problem being Valiant not providing clear and concise instruction but expect you to operate as if it's been delivered. Would NOT recommend this company. They have great potential, but poor ownership/upper management.

What is the best part of working at the company?
The property I worked at was large and VERY fast paced. The stress is a constant high, but overall somewhat enjoyable. I appreciated all the work relationships I had with all my coworkers except for 2-3 specific people (being there for 4.5 years, I saw plenty of turnover). 

Great benefits though.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Work satisfaction is a bit low, it feels like there is not enough time to do everything. Work life balance goes out the window FAST.

The company/management can improve... Its growing fast so there are a lot of increasing growing pains and kinks they can work out. They need to be able to actually support their onsite employees more. Overall friendly and personable for now.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Keeping a positive attitude with co-workers makes the environment better on the day to day, but stress is high at all times and it can sometimes get to you.

Culture is generally the best thing about this company.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Always busy. A lot of moving and responsibilities. There's always something to complete, even when you think you finish your tasks.

Pros
Strong team environment with capable, collaborative people who genuinely care about doing good work. Day-to-day culture is generally positive, flexible in places, and supportive among peers. The company has a solid foundation and real potential to become a great long-term workplace if leadership choices evolve.

Cons
There is a heavy management presence but limited leadership development. Micromanagement is common, which slows execution and reduces autonomy. Decision-making is often centralized beyond what’s necessary.

Compensation is often below market, reinforcing a broader focus on cost control over long-term investment. This shows up in underinvestment in systems, tools, and processes, creating inefficiencies and workarounds. Overall, there are few signals that long-term tenure is actively valued — sustained investment in people and infrastructure would better support retention and growth.

I have been a community manager with Valiant for over 1 year, and I have worked for several other companies in the past. Valiant is the best company I have worked for in my career and plan to stay with them as long as possible. The company provides excellent benefits, and compensation is competitive. The company is growing rapidly, so there are lots of opportunities for advancement. Of course, with rapid growth comes growing pains, but Valiant leadership offers many resources to assist everyone with each change. Each community comes with its own challenges, and leadership actually recognizes the day-to-day challenges we face on site. I would recommend anyone who enjoys working with a close knit group to apply. With Valiant, you're more than just a number, you're family. It's the best career move I could have made.

What is the best part of working at the company?
Unmatched company culture! I have had the privilege of working at Valiant since 2019 and have watched the company grow and have been able to grow with it. Throughout the growth, the Valiant Spirit has always been present and showcased by executive and senior leadership. This culture and energy waterfalls down throughout all levels and aspects of the company and makes for a great work experience.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
The growth means we are always busy and there is always more to do! Working at Valiant is not for the person wanting to be stale and stagnant. If you are a go-getter, eager to work, eager to grow, and eager to succeed then look no further!

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
The Valiant Spirit and Valiant Vibes speak for themselves!


I have been extremely disappointed with Valiant Residential, particularly regarding their ongoing lack of support. Oklahoma has consistently been a problematic area for them, which seems to stem from the assets they chose to take on without adequate preparation or resources. This has created a frustrating environment not only for residents but also for employees, who often feel undervalued and treated like disposable waste. Companies need to recognize that their employees are their greatest asset, and without proper support and respect, both staff and service quality suffer. Valiant Residential must address these issues seriously if they want to improve their reputation and operations.



First and foremost, this company does NOT train.  Do not expect to be trained to go into ANY position with this company.  At best, you will get a visit once a week or so and nothing is accomplished.  

The company does NOT take any time to properly onboard their employees.  The positions they have open in Oklahoma regarding management have been open for a reason.  They burn through managers like no other.   

The sad part is, that it COULD be a great place to work if the company showed a little more support.  Other employees will vouch, "There is no support" and "You just have to get used to it".  This was NOT for me.  Coming from over 20 years of management and turning properties around, this was a red flag.  Numbers are skewed on the sites to make it look appealing to owners.  Do NOT be a part of this.  

What is the best part of working at the company?
Valiant Residential is an excellent company to work for. They have an essential advancement in the industry, nice benefits, and the headquarters ceo and HR department are always there for employees and residents as well

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Working after hours when a disaster happens, and sometimes  working with colleagues who are learning 


What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
The work environment is always with a valiant get-it-done attitude, and employees get recognized 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Very experienced in sharing tasks with colleagues and having fun.

The culture was fun but, there was NO work life balance. You would be working through the nighttime just to keep up. They would also promise things that they could not fill and expect the team to work around the clock to fulfill the promises. When concerns were brought up, you were met with work around responses to keep you questioning or defensive behavior to make it seem that you were the problem. As far as the enjoyable part, the team that we had continued to smile and laugh which helped. Sometimes, you would find that they would either not care about what concerns there are, just get the job done.
