Pros
Flexible scheduling, if you have good people at your property it can be fun at times
Cons
Where to begin... Since 2023/24, when Blackstone took over, ACC became this soulless corporate mess. Before it truly felt like corporate cared about employees, and were more in tune to the needs of each property. By conducting mass layoffs, we are struggling at property level, losing half of our management team. As a student, a big thing that was pushed was internal growth and the opportunity for a career with ACC after graduation. Their summer program which helps prepare graduating students for management positions, pays LESS than my current role as a community assistant. Now, with only 2 managers at each property, there are scarce openings to even get a position, so why would i put myself through minimum wage for the summer just so I most likely won't end up landing a management position anyways. They have cheaped out in so many ways over the past couple of years. Not to mention the lack of awareness from those at corporate who seem to only care about numbers at face value instead of understanding the context behind them. Happy to have received an offer elsewhere and to be leaving soon.
