Pros

Village Green HAD a great training program and got me on the right track to a successful future in real estate. I have them to partially thank for that. It is a large and tenured company so you know that the company has a strong backbone being almost 100 years in the running. They always hire young driven employees to work with them with which created a fun environment of peers to connect with.

Cons

The training program has noticeably fallen behind in the recent years. Getting a raise is like asking someone for an amputation. Feeling appreciated is seldom within the upper management. Very cliquey! You can accelerate quickly BUT you plateau just as fast. I had to go to another company to move up as they only chose favorites (brownnosers) to promote. If you are good at your job they would rather keep you there instead of promoting you. They are too worried about filling the position you are good at instead of empowering you to a higher and more challenging role. The CEO is sexist and racist. Just being honest... stay away from him and you will do well.

Pros

You get free lunch during your one week training webinar. But there was a twenty word minimum on this section or I would have said nothing at all.

Cons

Where to start. The pay is pitiful. The management is lazy, the sales staff is way way overworked, doing the work of the both the assistant property manager and the property manager. Honestly it's an extremely unhealthy place to work, do yourself a favor and steer well clear.

Pros

Good core values and excellent training when progressing through the ranks. Truly enjoyed many of my coworkers and remain in close contact to this day. While many of the expectations seem strict they are not hard to uphold if the proper amount of work is put into the position. I left because the farther up I got the more corrupt the company seemed to become and I couldn't ethically work for that type of business.

Cons

Many of the higher ups have been hired externally and have little knowledge of what the lower tier employees actually do. The CEO is merely in the position he is in because the company was handed to him as a family business. There is no real grasp of how to run the company. The company used to have a major presence in property management with properties in nearly half the United States. Sadly VG has lost so many clients they are barely hanging on to the ones they have now.
