Signe Erickson Review of Doran Companies

Was a great place to work and most days I enjoyed my job. The staff were all focused on trying to improve where they saw was needed, most the time when I worked there. Unfortunately I feel in this business they move people around so much, and in my opinion advanced the wrong people, that I can t leave the 5 star review that I had up before. Not because I am bitter, I was laid off at the start of covid, it happens. And I think you can get burnt out in my position, things/life change.
When I worked there, pre covid things were good. It is unfortunate as they were doing really well there. I do feel like people are disposable in this business and watching from the outside of the leasing and management team it seems like they don t let their teams that work well stay together, I feel like it is short sighted. I think it is very common in the property management business but also is the problem with it. They do have some really amazing residents and 4 legged friends there, that I used to get to visit with each day! The best part of my job giving treats to pups and helping the residents. They do have some great staff there too. I think they are going through growing pains and covid has changed many things.
I worked for them for 3 years, 2 years through a vendor and the 3rd year I was brought on board ,when they decided to bring the position in house. I was so grateful they did and the benefits package back then was great, not sure if that has changed. I really miss many of the residents and my coworkers.
If looking to work there, do some research first, compare benefits packages, check Glassdoor etc. They have some great properties, I hope they can recover in this economy and I would just suggest they listen to their staff more. I think many want to see the company succeed, and I really was hoping to stay there longer and grow with them but life happens.
