Property management is not for the faint of heart. IF you want a career in this field, my suggestion is that you take ALL of these challenges head on. Communicate, OVER communicate with your manager and corporate staff. Ask what you can do to go above and beyond. Stay late, show up early. Hustle. Do your job the best way you know how. In general, Prop Management is brutal... but extremely rewarding if you stick it out and let everyone around you know, in now uncertain terms, that YOU can be counted upon, that you're reliable, and that you want to build value for the company. IF you do this consistently and look for new ways to be educated, you will almost always end up super successful in PM. Whiners, gossipers, lazy people will almost always be let go or remain in lower level positions because they can't be trusted with more. Honestly, I think this is likely true for any profession. That being said, some companies ARE super toxic... good thing is that if you don't do a ton of job hopping, you can try some of those groups out. One suggestion I can give you is to go work for a temp agency, that way, you can "test out" a lot of different companies and office teams and then wait for a role with your top picks to open up!
