Pros

It's so rare to be at a company where you truly feel like you're building something special and completely new. Compass is that kind of place. Everyone who has made it inside the door realizes how special it is. The rare combination of smart business model, incredible technology and world class talent across every department. The Mission resonates and the new principles are put to use by every team member (and often called out when there are wins!). The team makes mistakes because the move fast but people don't dwell on them. The culture is great, office spaces are nice and the ethos and passion to help agents grow their business is woven into EVERYTHING the company does. The product & engineering team is actually shipping beautiful and effective products and there is plenty of room to dream big.

Cons

It can be stressful sometimes because of the speed and amount of new faces all the time. There is a decent amount of staff transition but the top performers are supported and given huge amounts of responsibility and it just seems like the company is re-loading for the huge next phase of the business.

Pros

Founders have great vision and drive. The company culture is inviting and relatively forward thinking with nice perks and benefits. The convergence of tech and real estate is also an interesting/exciting space to be a part of.

Cons

Because of the desire to grow so quickly there were plenty of systems issues that inevitably would lead to quality control or inability to recreate systems because staff was overstretched and encouraged to go full speed ahead without a solid blueprint of effective communication. There was also a sense of disconnect between vision of execs and staff on the ground carrying out the nuts and bolts of that vision.
