Pros
A culture that listens to it's employees vs. a top down driven management culture. Empowers coworkers to "Think like an Owner" Higher than average pay for the industry, little things like a bonus, PTO, kind words, on the spot awards, Sundays off make a work atmosphere that is tops in the industry. While some companies have had to pay for a slogan to say "We Care" at Extra Space the investment made in each customer, site and coworkers demonstrates that this company really does Care. Extra Space provides not only the training to be successful but the support and tools to reach career success. Having worked at another Storage Company (10+years) I can say that Extra Space is hands down the leader in customer and coworker care in the industry. Wish I started here 20 years ago...
Cons
Work is challenging and demanding. Interview process is long as the culture is protected by every coworker. It is not just can you do the job but can you operate in a culture that is not fear driven management and can you drive and achieve results while demonstrating your soft management skills. These are not cons for the right people.
