Where do I Start?
The company provides many opportunities for advancement but based on my experience and the experience of others that I have talked to , it appears you must fit a certain "look" in order to advance in this company or know someone who knows someone. You must wait a year to apply for a position and if you are a Bozzuto employee you are guaranteed an interview, but if you don't fit a particular look you will not be promoted. I have been working as a Resident Concierge for years & applied/interviewed for well over 10 positions to Sales & Marketing Associate but have always been told I don't have enough experience, despite the Sales Associates at the the property that I work at not having experience before being hired.
As a Resident Concierge I am not given a break. You heard me right- NO. LUNCH. BREAKS- As a Resident Concierge, you are expected to work for 8 hours straight with no lunch break and no 15 minute break. And when I want to take off for a medical appointment I MUST take minimum 4 hours at a time because a temp agency is hired to cover my position.
As a Resident Concierge I am treated like a second class citizen by my peers, there is no respect and a lot of Sales Associates appear to have a superiority complex where they believe they are above the Concierge, and the Resident Concierge is their Secretary.
A lot of extremely heavy packages (furniture) that you are expected to lift and move by yourself and will wear and tear your body down.
This is truly a dehumanizing position that a person should not stay in for too long unless they are at a property that respects the concept of lunch breaks and teamwork...which I have yet to find.
