Anyone staying at the Biltmore in midtown? Is the management really that bad? Thinking to sign a lease with them but then saw really bad reviews on Google.

I live in the Biltmore. Management company has changed about a month ago (they seem to be better than the old management). The MAJOR ISSUE is that the building only has two functioning elevators, so at times you need to factor in 20+min and a super crowded elevator to get to your apartment (NOT great at all and unsafe especially during COVID times. Most of the times I have to take the stairs....very annoying). The building is currently going through renovations; the issues with the elevators are ongoing and management is unable to give an indication when all 4 elevators will be running again (this could easily be another year+). In any case, 4 elevators are far too little (and unsafe) for this building, and even when all 4 elevators worked, all elevators where always crowded with long wait times.

I am just reading the Yelp reviews of the building. They are all spot on. There are two new ones which the new management must have arranged. New management seems to be good with marketing. 2 elevators for a 50 floor apartment is illegal and unsafe!!!

I’ve been a general manager for a convenience store for almost 2 years now. I have raised profit after variable expenses by 13% compared to last year, and I am exceeding budgets by 5-30% in every category except for turnover rate. I got an 11% raise last year, but still only make $55k. My store profits about 17k a month on inside sales, and 160k a month in fuel. I think I deserve more, but I don’t know how to ask for it, and don’t know how to begin a job search aside from indeed. Any advice?

The AWS role will be an IC role and more hands-on/technical. The startup will be a CPO role reporting to the CEO with a team of about 50 devs+PMs.
