Pros

If you are a property manager, you get to spend time in the office alone for the most part. This should be an asset for someone who is more or less an introvert.

Cons

Much too much work to do in the office and outside on the property. Policies are always changing and more and more work (paper work and physical work) is demanded. It's hard to get time off even when you have accrued vacation time because people are always quitting making it necessary for schedules to change. Not unusual to work 7-10 days in a row before getting a day off and the management schedules time so that time off pay is minimal despite hours put in.

Pros

This position offers a great deal of empowerment to hire, train and develop your team and run your business. No day is ever the same and you get to be out from behind a desk engaging with people. The team I have worked with and the leaders I have worked for have challenged me to grow and develop in every step of my journey here.

Cons

There are a lot of competing priorities so the ability the prioritize, make decisions and be flexible is vital to success.

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.
