Riverstone Residential Group Employer Reviews

I have wasted 5 years of my life with this company and I cannot believe the lack of loyalty and appreciation for their employees. Scratch that - the only ones who receive any appreciation are anyone who works above the property level... Corporate. They get awards and big fat bonuses for the work that we, on site staff, do every day for our measly wages – more... and bonuses, if you get any. They will find a way to not bonus you, whether its for paperwork or some other idiotic excuse. I have not been promoted after 5 years and awards from my apartment association. After speaking with my manager, she said that the company would rather hire out people than promote from within. I couldn't believe it but it made sense. After hearing for years from various higher ups how they had "huge plans for me" and that I was "going places," it was all a lie this company is terrible and it's been the worst thing that has ever happened to me. – less

This company has so many conflicts of interest it's unbelievable. The code of ethics looks great but is not enforced.
The company tells their clients that each property is being professionally managed but they fail to adequately train staff do there is incredibly high turnover = dissatisfied residents. They do not have checks and balances or any type – more... of real structure in place for employees to follow.
The pay scale is as follows: take whatever the previous person who held the job makes and decrease it between $2-4 per hour. They overcharge clients and underpay employees. – less

Riverstone Residential Group is a great company to work for with lots of opportunities. They have properties all over the US. Benefits are great. Basically you work as the Property Management, but another big company owns it. I was rotating Properties to maintain occupancy and it was fun.

This corporation only cares about bottom line, and cutting budgets that are needed to keep a property running correctly. Do not apply to this corporation it does not care about lower level employees heath or family even though that's all they talk about, the truth is you and everyone at the lower level is expendable and they will do everything in their – more... power to make your life miserable. There is little or no room for advancement, even if you have the knowledge. In two years haven't had any raises or reviews not even a cost of living expense that most corporations will give dedicated employees, there reasoning for this is that it's just not in the budget, but where does the money go then you ask; to the CEO's of course so they can fly around the country playing golf sound familiar yet. Think long and hard before applying to this company I should have. – less

Riverstone Residential Group is the Management Group that managed the Retreat at City Center apartments, where I currently work. Our office has a high traffic volume due to our property being the only showcase and Class A property in our area. I have to be constantly on the move and have a variety of different tasks and responsibilities to manage throughout – more... the day. There are daily and weekly reports that I research and build to give to my manager and our owners, and most importantly I am responsible for finding the perfect apartment homes for our prospects.
This management group has been a phenomenal career path and experience, however, considering the constant competitive business nature of management groups-- I feel that Riverstone is not in the same standing as when I became an employee.
I feel that I have significantly expanded my business experience and knowledge base, as well as thrived from being able to work with and be responsible for a small team of colleagues within an office. I have a higher appreciation for working with a select group of individuals with a like minded attitude towards hard work while utilizing exact rules and regulations set down by our employers. – less

Riverstone is a great company to work for. If you are looking for a place to call home Riverstone will be the place.

I have worked for this company for almost 12 years. They are the best! Lots of support from Senior Management. Property Managers have the opportunity to really make a difference on their sites as they value your opinion. Many promotional opportunities for those who work hard. Training, Risk Management and Accounting are very supportive to on-site associates. – more... I am proud to be a part of such a great organization. Vacation time is very generous with 5 weeks for 10+ years of employment. My only wish is that they would bring back better health coverage as over the recent years benefit plans have gotten expensive with less coverage selections/higher co-pays, etc. – less

Typical day working with prospects, and residents, learned alot about property management, wonderful management company.

This is the worst company I've ever worked for. The management is mostly incompetent and disorganized and discourages any ideas on ways to improve the company or process. Everybody is a VP of something and nobody knows who is actually above who in any given circumstance, resulting in finger pointing among departments and no real action. They don't respect – more... your personal time and life balance despite what they advertise. They grossly neglect their clients and look for escape goats when the clients get upset. I would chose being unemployed over ever working for this company. – less

Horrible company to work for. They did not care about their employees and they let me go because the property manager didn't "like" me. She was a catty person and wanted everyone to like her. Because everyone would always come to me, she was threatened, and soon after, got me fired, although they refused to tell me why.

I enjoyed my tenure with Riverstone. I felt I wasn't being challenged. The hardest part of my job was learning all the contacts across the states, the most enjoyable was my teams and clients.

Great Co , Management , co- workers all team players. I enjoyed every day , I did not find anything hard about the job . Management ,co-works made the job fun .

Good Company to work for. This company is effected by slow economy.

Riverstone Residential is a company that offers great benefit package to all of it employee's as well as recognition for outstanding work and commitment to one of the most top property management company in the US.
