Pros

- Hours - Decent benefits - Good co-workers

Cons

Public storage profits 48% of it's total income, yet none of the people who draw in the business see any of it. (Property Managers/Relief Managers) They constantly change the bonus structure every year and the majority of people do not receive a bonus despite the hard work they put in. District managers and above receive a very generous quarterly bonus all built on the back of our hard work. They want you to sell, sell and sell, yet give you no incentive to. I use to have faith in this company when I first started, but it has all gone downhill. The stockholder ALWAYS comes first. The employees will get shafted by not receiving any bonus and the customers will get ridiculous rent increases. Stay as far away from this company as possible. They will draw you in with false hope and promises. Side note: Paid time off and holiday has been reduced each year.

The company continues to invest in its people, processes, and growth strategy, making it an excellent place for those who are looking to develop professionally while being part of a winning team. If you’re looking for a company with strong leadership, career advancement opportunities, and a clear vision for the future, Public Storage is a fantastic place to be.

Cons

Cons: As Public Storage continues to grow, the pace of the business can be very fast. There are often multiple initiatives, priorities, and opportunities happening simultaneously, which requires strong organizational skills and the ability to adapt quickly. Success in this environment depends on being able to effectively prioritize, manage competing demands, and stay focused on the highest-impact work. While the pace can be challenging at times, it also creates tremendous opportunities for growth, learning, and career development.
