Pros

Decent pay after stock starts to kick in. Benefits are ok for a single person. Lots of autonomy. Great multi-unit experience. Great facilities, security, safety management experience. Very liquid company.

Cons

Goals and expectations are very unrealistic. Corporate office is very disconnected from the field and have no idea what we do. Zero work/life balance and it gets worse the longer you are there. Regional Managers (your boss) do nothing except approve expense reports and have no purpose in the organization. The company has no idea what they want. Everything is pass/fail, with DMs set up for failure constantly. The audit process is the biggest farce I have ever seen that lacks credibility, relevance, and objectivity. The Property Managers are the most incompetant people with no skill-set, however the company expects results you would see from college graduates.

The company continues to invest in its people, processes, and growth strategy, making it an excellent place for those who are looking to develop professionally while being part of a winning team. If you’re looking for a company with strong leadership, career advancement opportunities, and a clear vision for the future, Public Storage is a fantastic place to be.

Cons

Cons: As Public Storage continues to grow, the pace of the business can be very fast. There are often multiple initiatives, priorities, and opportunities happening simultaneously, which requires strong organizational skills and the ability to adapt quickly. Success in this environment depends on being able to effectively prioritize, manage competing demands, and stay focused on the highest-impact work. While the pace can be challenging at times, it also creates tremendous opportunities for growth, learning, and career development.
