Pros

Co-workers are great. Residents at some properties are delightful to be around and to interact with.

Cons

Pay for the amount of work demanded is CRAZY low. The company makes almost 100 million but yet all employees are low income and can’t even afford to live on the very property that they breaks their backs to maintain. Supervisors and Managers are the only employees who receive free/minimal housing costs. Leasing is constantly moved around creating havoc for them and their families. Several staff members are related to each other creating an unequal balance. Fair housing only applies to residents, but conflict of interest continues with staff reporting directly to their family members. Corporate is the biggest joke of all time and are a clique of evil manipulators.

Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry to hear that your experience did not fully meet your expectations, and we appreciate your positive comments regarding your co-workers and the residents you worked with. Olen compensates employees in alignment with the local job market and is committed to offering a competitive compensation and benefits package. We can also confirm that we have team members who are related; however, all such relationships are managed in accordance with our conflict of interest and chain of command policies. Olen takes great pride in the quality of our brand, our communities, and the experience we provide to our residents and team members. We appreciate your feedback, however, and we wish you success in your future endeavors.

Pros

Large company but feels like a small community, in under 6 months of being hired I’ve met every employee in our state and some of the Higher Ups from out of state

Cons

Lots of miss-communication amongst the higher ups losing the company money because it’s easier to not communicate issues and just pay the PO
