Pluspunten

You are walking around a lot, so great for exercise and the staff was very friendly. I appreciated my DM, as they did try the best they could to run the district being short staffed and dealing with sites that had multiple break ins

Minpunten

Manager above DM never came through on promises to give site the proper tool needed to help run it efficiently High turnovers You don’t get paid enough for what you have to deal with, because your not only a salesman, your a referee, therapist, janitor, maintenance worker, and a detective Demanding sales goals to meet Even though I did great with my ratings on shops, there were way too many that came in and wasted my time when I was the only manager on site and took me away from a REAL customer They started tracking how many times their facilities answered incoming calls and we were expected to answer each call, even when we were single staffed trying to run the facility to its fullest capacity. It came off to me as being micromanaged and lack of trust in employees fulfilling their responsibilities Just a lot of overall unnecessary pressure to rent an empty box Corporate Management implemented policies for field management that looked good on paper, but made it harder to do our jobs out in the field After the pandemic, ESS expected us to justify $80+ rate increases to customers, when ESS corporate are the ones that implemented this to automatically change in there account system in the first place, so yes the customers were not happy Pay range is on the lower end and does not accommodate the cost of living in the more expensive cities to live in

Pluspunten

"Working at Extra Space Storage has been a highly positive experience overall. The company culture genuinely prioritizes work-life balance, providing predictable schedules and stable hours that are hard to find in retail environments. The benefits package is excellent, featuring a great 401(k) match, reliable health insurance, and helpful performance bonuses. Managers generally offer a lot of autonomy.

Minpunten

The only downside is that career advancement and regular merit raises can feel a bit limited, often depending heavily on your specific district manager and region. If you value independence, steady hours, and strong corporate support, it is a fantastic place to build a career."

Pluspunten

Solid schedule - 40 hours per week, not expected to be there more than that. No one looking over your shoulder constantly (unless you have a new DM, they can't seem to help it) Mostly great people to work with Local, immediate management does care and are helpful.

Minpunten

Very large rate increases really upset customers and that's just too bad. We are given word to tell them but it just isn't true. Putting more money in stock holder's pockets is the bottom line and it doesn't matter how much anger we have to deal with. You are absolutely expected to sell insurance to every renter. However, you must be careful because you aren't "insurance salesmen". You get a ding when you don't sell it. We are encouraged to use evasive language and rush through it so the renter thinks it's required without quite saying so. You would think this large of a corporation would have handymen available but it is so, so difficult to get the smallest repair done due to getting bids from vendors, turning them in, reminding the person you turned them in to what needs done maybe getting approval, then scheduling. By that time lights (or whatever) have been out for a month or 2. Benefits are very expensive and cover so little.
