Transparency and profesionalism throughout the company

Review from Executive Dept · Posted 9 days ago

Since the time I joined in April of 2026, my leadership team has communicated very clearly with me. I have felt comfortable being able to ask questions and grow as a new member of the team.

What does the leadership team need to get better at?

Leadership Reviews

Treating African Americans like we matter Current management does not allow you to grow within the role

Posted 12 days ago

Communication, don't bait and switch the job location, you put an ad to hire at a location, the ad needs to be just public storage, you have people driving an hour+ for $15 per hr, or you have people doing more than 1 property in a day, but it's the busiest times of the month for rentals & payments

Review from Customer Success Dept · Posted 13 days ago

If your talking about anyone above the DM. You guys need to do a better job and actually pay your employees a liveable wage. I want like to see the people at corporate do the work that PM's do daily. You would be exhausted having to do what we do. This job makes me very depressed and joyless.

Review from Operations Dept · Posted 14 days ago

Leadership needs to focus on understanding its employees individual needs on a fundamental level.

Review from HR Dept · Posted 15 days ago

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?

Compensation Reviews

Respectfully in terms of the hourly rate it is the lowest I've accepted in a decade. Life is expensive and with inflation and changes to the economic climate I believe this job is deserving of higher hourly rate.

Review from Operations Dept · Posted 12 days ago

You want to pay people just above minimum wage but want them to be a debt collector and a maintenance person, those positions are worth more money. If your employees are compensated they are happier, not these contests that only 1 person gets paid

Review from Customer Success Dept · Posted 13 days ago

Are pay isnt the greatest

Review from Sales Dept · Posted 13 days ago

I feel undervalued because Public Storage doesn't pay a liveable wage. You expect us to do all of this labor for free. You would pay vendor to do what we do. But why do that when you can cheat your workers having them do it with no bonuses. The thing that would make me feel better is a better raise.

Review from Operations Dept · Posted 14 days ago

Everyone should at least get a little bit of a raise to make it $20 or $1 raise. There are some of us who go beyond expectations and do stuff that other people don't do or supposed to do.

Review from Sales Dept · Posted 14 days ago

What are some of the best things about your team?

Team Reviews

They are all uplifting, encouraging, and want to work together as a team and a family.

Review from Operations Dept · Posted 6 days ago

The culture that has been created of support and mutual accountability.

Review from Executive Dept · Posted 9 days ago

Similar to my answer in regards to the leadership team, my fellow coworkers have been welcoming and able to assist when needed. Still have yet to meet all the members in my district.

Review from Operations Dept · Posted 12 days ago

Nick Leonard has been a great peer

Review from IT Dept · Posted 12 days ago

What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?

Team Reviews

Coworkers are late everyday. Stealing money. Stealing out of customer units. Everybody is lazy

Review from Admin Dept

Trainers should create a more positive and professional environment. Focusing on teamwork instead of negativity about other employees or sites would improve morale and reduce the competitive culture that causes unnecessary conflict between

Review from Customer Support Dept

The problem workers need to be removed. They gossip, threaten, verbally abuse and strike other workers and NOTHING happens. In fact some are rewarded and never dealt with. Creating a toxic abusive work environment

Review from Customer Success Dept

More teamwork more togetherness more teamwork dynamic

Review from Sales Dept

I think we could improve communication, teamwork, and consistency during busy situations. Working together more collaboratively and supporting each other more proactively would help create a stronger work environment.

Review from IT Dept · Posted 12 days ago

What needs to change to make the company culture better?

Environment Reviews

Actually dealing with the problem workers rather than rewarding them. Paying the ones doing their job a good decent living wage on level with the area they live and rhe amount of work they do.

Review from Customer Success Dept

Stop arbitrarily raising rent prices

Review from Operations Dept

I think the company culture would improve with stronger communication, more employee recognition, consistent leadership, and better support for employees. Creating an environment where employees feel heard, respected, and appreciated would help morale and teamwork

Review from Customer Success Dept

Need to hire better staff. Be more transparent to both employees ans customers.

Review from Sales Dept

Insistence ALL managers do the job. We are pretending to be a TEAM. Team DOES NOT mean I (and others ) do someone elses work. Team is 100% equally DOING the job and assisting others when the going get rough not "oh what a great team player, he just did all of the other managers work.

Posted 12 days ago

When you are thrown from one property to another it is hard to get a routine, and you always feel like you are in a state of panic

Review from Customer Success Dept · Posted 13 days ago

The company focuses too much on things like Google scores, and not investing enough into property upkeep. (I.E. Gates, broken pavement, broken doors, working cameras.)

Review from Operations Dept · Posted 15 days ago

The pay needs to be at least $18hr and the managers need to not be racist towards black people
