Pros

-Benefits were very comprehensive and almost no co-pay, choice of Kaiser or Aetna PPO (I chose Aetna) -amazing co-workers and real estate agents -one WFH day during Covid-19 for Office Admins -some autonomy -Diversity and Inclusion was a nice perk

Cons

-cheap with salary -yet there was a lot of money for extravagant parties and unnecessary swag last year -complete re-org, tons of intensive training on top of our daily duties -added additional duties, with just a title change, not a salary increase -massive layoffs -market is not stable -since going public, Compass stock markets never did well, yet they claim to be the #1 brokerage in the country -scaled too quickly & closed/consolidated a lot of offices -middle management is a joke -micromanaging bosses with some big egos

Pros

Friendly staff. Company events. If you work in a good office, you’ll have fun.

Cons

Went downhill really fast. Employees are second class to agents and that only lasts so long. They stripped away nearly all benefits that made them so popular in the first place and keep adding new projects for the team to work on. Employees are stretched incredibly thin all the time. They severely underpay compared to other tech roles and if you are part of an acquisition, it will be even less.
