How is Palms Associates different? For a maintenance team member, working at Palms means contributing to a property we built, we own, we manage. It means continuously improving upon 60 years of service to our residents. It means access to not only housing discounts, monthly and yearly bonus awards, and Interplay Learning, but access to historically generous, and immediately vested, 401k and profit-sharing rewards (10% each of the last 8 yrs) as well as $1,000/$1,500 HSA contributions. Our in-house development and renovations teams are always building new properties or renovating our current portfolio. These are a few of the reasons 50% of Palms’ employees stay 5 years or longer.
