Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?

"Be prepared to take heat for your performance. For example you will get a lot of grief if your leasing totals aren't very high, even if no one rents because Equity jacked their rates."

What don't you like about working at Equity Residential?

"Management is vague and unattached. They refuse to make life easier for employees and residents if it affects their bottom line. You also have to deal with some horrible people. Equity also likes to change rules etc that make a lot of residents angry however its not the corporate leadership that has to deal with the backlash."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"I would put employees first. After all its the property employees who generate revenue. Increase pay and work with us to make doing our jobs easier and more efficient."
