Let's sit down meet and have a talk.

Review from Customer Success Dept · Posted 20 days ago

The company could appreciate the people that are running the stores on a day to day basis the DMs get way over paid and do half the work the employees that are at the facility do. Daily lock checks dealing with issues keeping the facility clean calling customer that owe or that have an issue

Review from Customer Support Dept · Posted 20 days ago

Customers are confused especially older people. Too many policies and too many layers between a PM and CEO

Review from Operations Dept · Posted 21 days ago

To be honest if i provided an explanation I dont think Public Storage would not do anything to improve things Not coming off as a disgruntle employee just feel my short time at this organization has not been positive

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

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

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

Review from Admin Dept

Customer dissatisfaction due to high rates and the issues never being addressed by public storage leading to major issues that cannot be handled at a pm level

Review from Customer Success Dept

Long, boring days for low pay

Review from Operations Dept

Communication, consistency, and employee support need improvement. Clearer expectations, better teamwork, and stronger leadership involvement would help things run more effectively

Review from Customer Success Dept

Day to day there is not much to look forward to. Often work independently so no socialization to keep motivated.

Review from Sales Dept

My feet and back hurt every morning, I could do with less cleaning responsibilities. I'd also like to work one day less a week.

Review from Operations Dept

Lack of flexibility; poor systems

Review from Finance Dept

Having to take care of several locations make us feel that we are not completing everything that needs doing. Most location do take more than 1/2 day to do lock check, cleaning, taking care of customer, and other task.

Review from Customer Success Dept

Unfair and too high and too frequent Rent increased

Review from Customer Support Dept

I used to love my job. I had pride in my locations. Lately I have been disheartened because NO ONE else is doing things at my level. Even those that have been here for years. I come back after a weekend to find my numbers dropping and all my hard work gone to waste. And I'm in trouble its MY store.

Review from Customer Support Dept

as mentioned before we need a quicker response time on the work orders and getting vendors here to do repairs. Constantly getting customer complaints about repairs not getting done in a timely manner

Review from Customer Support Dept

Customers complain about properties being open half time, not having access to people in office and customer service line, inaccurate information told between pms and customer service.

Review from Sales Dept

the google reviews should be a place on the I-Pad that customers tap when they pay, like Walmart has at check out. The rent increases to many times especially for customers who have been here for many years, that's ridiculous

Review from Customer Success Dept

The MPV is outrageous and it will show up in customer satisfaction surveys and google reviews too much work put on the employees for 15 and hour and the job is dangerous. I have literally been threatened at work. too concerned with profit and not employees.

Review from Sales Dept

What do you like best about your company?

I get to work not only stuck in an office but also outside almost half the time.

What would you most like to see improved at your company?

Location coverage, 2 people working at very busy locations.
