A Company That Actually Walks the Talk

Pros

Working at AMLI offers the rare balance of structure, support, and autonomy. Leadership listens and delivers, resources and tools are top-notch, and growth is attainable for those willing to work for it. The culture is genuine and collaborative, with real care for residents and communities, strong benefits, competitive pay, and teamwork that actually works.

Cons

It’s a fast-paced environment that can overwhelm if you don’t thrive on it, and accountability is high so this isn’t the place to coast.

I expected better from this company.

Pros

Nothing positive to say here, i'll let the reader draw their own conclusion from what I say below, as I lived all of it.

Cons

After over 6 years of employment in a key position for this company I was treated miserably. And this at the same time I was being told by a top company exec "you are the reason we have had the success we've had on this property"....while at the same time other management elements are telling me if my performance doesn't improve i'll be let go....completely incongruent, made no sense. Pure politics, the "old skirt network" at it's worst. I don't care how many good reviews they get, in the end I was completely disrespected. Point is even if your numbers and metrics are good with them, and mine were consistently good for a long time, it won't matter if you aren't one of their "chosen" people. I know it's like that in a lot of places, but I expected much better after over 6 years of employment. I have permanent scars in my back from the knife wounds I got working for that company, and tire marks from the bus I was thrown under. Pure politics.

Red Queen Theory: Run fast but get nowhere

Community manager

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Compensation is above industry average. Great training department. Awards programs create a healthy competition. Majority of communities are quality assets.

Cons

One thing the Red Queen loves is red tape, and at AMLI you will a lot. There is a significant disconnect between senior management and onsite operations staff. A lot of time is wasted on unimportant details. National Property Tours are an absolute joke. Senior management should just show up. Even some of the VPs refer to it as a dog and pony show.
