Pros
My district team and peers in the division are great to work with.
Cons
One of the Senior VPs is absolutely horrible to work with. He has no filter, talks poorly about other DIvisional VPs, senior executives and DIstrict Mgrs in the presence of anyone who will listen. As a DM, you have to travel with him and he does his best to criticize, put you and the DVP down and make himself sound important b/c of his title and tenure. My DVP hates to see him coming and so do DMs. We all have to receive sort of a pep talk before and after he leaves b/c my DVP knows how ignorant, rude and arrogant he is and tries to make the DMs feel better. He takes pleasure in bullying and making you feel uncomfortable during visits. Not to mention, he uses very foul language regardless of who he is around. I am embarrassed that he even works at Extra Space. For those applying for a DM position anywhere on the east coast, you should think twice about it. Every person on his support staff has left the company. Having to deal with him has been the worst part about this job and has caused me to seek employment elsewhere even though I'm considered high potential. Constant exposure to this SVP is just not worth it.
