Pros
The support teams above you are engaged and plug in where needed. Upper Management especially Area & Regional Managers are hands on! I continually learned from my Regional VP of 8 years. The company invests in its Managers and cares about what's happening onsite with the physical property of course but more over they care about their onsite teams. MAA is service driven and that means service to residents AND EMPLOYEES alike.
Kontras
You work a lot of hours if you are on salary (especially on the smaller properties) but you receive a lot of time off as well. I received 5 weeks of vacation plus sick & personal days off... not to mention Holidays and almost all weekends off so it made up for the long work weeks. MAA runs every aspect of their business well. They are on the cutting edge of every part of multi-family housing and expect their Managers to be exceptional leaders. Its one of the most demanding jobs you will ever love.
