Pros
If you have a good Property Manager you are very lucky because they are the ones who typically look out for you over the Leasing and Assistant Managers.
Cons
You don't get paid commission off of completed leases you get paid once the residents move in which could be 5-6 months after you sign their lease depending on the market. They throw everything on the leasing associates from answering phones to replying to emails, market surveys, package logs, creating leases, signing leases, tours, screening,dealing with residents, filing, ect you could be the only leasing associate working and they still make you do everything alone with little help from management. Little room for raises they pay minimum wage and thats it no discussion. They don't close the office for holidays, not even memorial day or fourth of july.
