A place, I miss like the plague. - Anonymous employee Preiss Employee Review

I had the pleasure of working for the Preiss Company after they purchased properties in South FL, from the former management company. Coming in, I was excited to grow, add and collaborate on ideas and looked forward to longevity with the company, especially based on the feedback received in the interview. 1 month in, I realized that I was a part of a ship sinking very fast, and tried everything in my power to keep it afloat. My manager was not very strong in his role, at no fault of his own, but due to inadequate preparation and training for the position. Unfortunately, the environment because so tense and uncomfortable, that no one really wanted to work there anymore, leading just about everyone on staff to see jobs elsewhere. Working there (in a management role) I had no designated workspace, and was forced to use a break room as my office. Management talks down to their employees, treats adults like children. As someone that was in the property management industry for several years prior and very successful in my roles, this was an environment that truly almost made me leave property management altogether. Although the pay is pretty good, If student housing is not your thing, THIS IS NOT the company for you to work for.
