What do you like best about the leadership team?

Leadership Reviews

I love the communication they keep with the employees and themselves , I like the way they interact with the employees when they need help or guidance.

Review from Customer Support Dept · Posted 4 days ago

They seem to have their eyes on the future in a very competitive business. They are also very proactive in their interactions with us in the field.

Personal interaction and no micromanaging.

Review from Sales Dept · Posted 11 days ago

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

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

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

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

Review from Operations Dept

Not being racist towards black people

Compensation Reviews

Review from Customer Success Dept · Posted 7 days ago

PM pay is not aligned with the market.

Review from Operations Dept · Posted 11 days ago

I like the job it's challenging which something I look forward to but at times it is a lot of work few dollars more in pay in this economy wouldn't hurt it would really boost morale also bring in more hires 17.50 to start wouldn't be to bad.

Review from Sales Dept · Posted 11 days ago

I feel that my hourly compensation is fair, but would be great to consider higher wage with my level of experience. Or, maybe give a higher level of available positions here at the new corporate HQ on the Office Services team. :)

Review from Admin Dept · Posted 11 days ago

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

What are some of the best things about your team?

Team Reviews

Communication, teamwork, helpful, always available in a tough situation

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

Team Reviews

Just being more efficient, team players, less "know it all" attitudes.

Review from Admin Dept · Posted 11 days ago

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

What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?

The customers are what i think is the positive

Review from Customer Support Dept · Posted 4 days ago

Nice people who are always willing to help those with less experience!

Review from Sales Dept · Posted 10 days ago

Management availability and coworker interaction.

Review from Operations Dept · Posted 11 days ago

People are always willing to help, genuinely, I feel like this goes beyond PS culture into PS targeting people who have that well engrained within them.

Review from Finance Dept · Posted 11 days ago

Coaching the opportunity to always grow in learn and your Managers don't make you feel like a bad employee.

Review from Sales Dept · Posted 11 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.

I was hired the day of my interview and given a free apartment. All the bosses were very friendly and helpful.

What's going wrong and how can it be improved?

Outlook Reviews

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
