In this month’s partnership<\/a> with Kingsley Associates<\/a>, office workers share their thoughts on what property managers can do to keep employees at their offices; from adding a gym, offering a daycare center and eliminating parking fees.<\/p>\n

“Showers, common wifi, bookable spaces (room for overflow meetings, larger presentations, all-hands, visiting employees, etc. outside what our suite can offer), a larger list of preferred vendors with favorable negotiated rates.” \u2013Office, San Francisco, Calif.<\/p>\n

“An on-site workout room with lockers\/showers would be very useful (and a great recruiting tool, both for our employees and for tenants).” \u2013Office, Denver, Colo.<\/p>\n

“The new parking fees are prohibitive to a large percentage of our workforce and will negatively impact our ability to attract and retain employees.” \u2013Office, Los Angeles, Calif.<\/p>\n

“Elevator concerns have forced one employee to resign and another to reduce work schedule due to physical limitations.\u201d \u2013Office, Columbia, Md.<\/p>\n

“It would be nice if you could do a solar parking lot, which would save money, keep our cars cleaner and keep the employees dryer when it rains.” \u2013Office, Dublin, Calif.<\/p>\n

“We have young employees who have asked about Amazon lock boxes. I think it’s unnecessary, but just a suggestion that has been mentioned.” \u2013Office, Chicago, Ill.<\/p>\n

“Honestly, I don’t think the property features have any impact on our ability to attract and retain employees because they are more interested in salary and benefits.” \u2013Office, Cincinnati, Ohio<\/p>\n

“The younger staff that we are hiring are looking for an office space that has a gym, places to eat, a locker room, a mother’s room and parking.” \u2013Office, Baltimore, Ala.<\/p>\n

“We are an office that is 80% women out of 200 employees.  A daycare center onsite would amaze and please a large portion of our employees.” \u2013Office, Seattle, Wash.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
