Pros

Steady schedule Great PTO plan Competitive commissions

Cons

Goal Board based bonus structure not feasible RVPs and SVPs play favorites with all PMs and APMs Growth opportunities selective based on factors that should not be important (MAA should offer growth to employees that excel in their role and make positive differences at their communities) Not enough training or resources provided to onsite teams (ESPECIALLY WEST DIVISION) Maintenance teams are run RAGGED resulting in a high turnover rate Too much emphasis put on stockholders

Pros

Great floor plans - Easy to sell

Cons

Managers don't listen to other opinions or ideas. They don't train managers how to manage and motivate staff. It's not 'what you know' but 'who you know' I found it a toxic spiteful environment. Very poor compensation too.
