Being the receptionist means you are at the core of the day to day smooth running of the office. There are many organizational operations. I manage the front desk, welcome visitors, handle the head office phone line and coordinating essential administrative tasks. I manage schedules of the boardrooms, order office supplies, process mail. I aim to create a welcoming and warm environment for staff and vendors as soon as they enter the door everyday.

Extremely not recommend to work here. Very high turnover. No real support from management . Management is cheap, greedy, and dishonest. Jobs are not secure and the workplace feels unsafe. They only care about tenants, never about the team or staff. Tenants are allowed to lie about staff and disrespect them, and management does nothing. Management always blames staff. Very unsatisfying place to work.
The work environment here is extremely discouraging. Turnover is very high due to a lack of support from management and colleagues. Leadership is more focused on saving money and catering to tenants than supporting staff, which creates an atmosphere of dishonesty, insecurity, and distrust. Jobs do not feel stable or safe, and management allows tenants to disrespect staff without any accountability. Staff concerns are ignored, and promises made by management are rarely kept. Overall, this is not a healthy or supportive workplace, it’s a very toxic environment and full of toxic people. Stressful environments, I would not recommend it to anyone seeking long-term, stable employment.
They fire employees immediately without any reason.

This is a horrible company to work for, they also manage apartments which are run down and don't care about the tenants at all. mist of their apartments are infested with bugs, rats and drugs.  units are broken down.  consistent complaints from tenants but no manager cares .  they tell the building managers just to evict people for no reason.. All they care about is money coming in and don't care about people at all .   Horrible company to work for and anyone looking to rent any of their properties do your research .   if you notice anything damaged in your unit before moving in , it will NOT get fixed.

great opportunity to learn more, very respectful and friendly and family oriented !
generally I am so happy to work for Cressey! 
part of the job is dealing with homeowners which come from different background and you need to keep in mind purchasing a property is almost biggest investment people may have! some customers are so detailed and demanding and companies policy is to keep them as satisfied as possible ! make sure dealing with demanding customers is your cup of tea.   

The maintenance team at Cressey is made up of totally awesome people.  The maintenance director and lead foreman are good at what they do and are very fair, level headed people.  Great pay and benefits.  If you work hard and show up every day you are rewarded with trust and respect, but you are not expected to break your back and have no life.  The work itself sometimes gets boring and feels pointless but most of the time you can feel proud of what you’ve accomplished that day. Highly recommend to work here. 

Productive and fun. Gained lots of experience,  tips and regardless of my time in the painting trade learned a lot more. The best would probably be the units we were working in. These were high end high rises located DT Calgary, so it made you want to give your best work everyday.

The place to work is not bad. Only located far from transport and therefore you need either your own car or a bus that goes badly.
Low salaries and no increase, yes, at the end of the year they give a good bonus, but that's all. The tools are all our own, spare parts are hard to come by, often you have to use what was taken from the old one.
The management of this property is good.
There is a lot of work, so I am busy all 8 hours, not a minute of rest.
