Pros

My favorite part about Post is the relationships I've made amongst co-workers across multiple properties and multiple markets. I've really felt like part of a team, and a valued contributor to the company. With a merger in the works, I hope the new company identifies the value of this work culture that Post has.

Cons

I wish we were in more markets. There's a bit of a disconnect between Texas and the rest of the markets.

We are so glad to hear that you appreciate the team environment at Post, and rest assured that MAA shares those same values. Our new company will certainly be one that fosters teamwork and collaboration! After the merger, we will have 311 total assets in 16 states, and we are excited about all the new opportunities that will arise from being located in more markets.

Pros

Post has been very personable since I have worked with them. They really do try their best to make sure their residents feel at home and taken care of. The employees also work together as a team which is very helpful.

Cons

Working Saturdays, but only open until 5 and you get one long weekend per month!

Another Merger still not over the first one

Pros

Great benefits, paid time off as well as sick time. Very fast paced and days don't drag on. Onsite employee discounts are nice.

Cons

We still do not have unity from the first merger and now we are at a second one. MAA managers still stick with MAA managers and Colonial sticks with Colonial managers.
