Pros

The people, support, and national network are unrivaled by any brokerage I have seen. There is an enormous culture of sharing and collaboration. People want to see you succeed and they are willing to share and learn from one another. The referral network is real and infinitely prosperous. The tech is good and getting better every day. Overall, everyone is happy to be here and you can feel that in your daily work environment.

Cons

Keeping up with the rapid evolution of expansive growth. Things change pretty quickly around here, always in an effort for betterment, but it can be frustrating adjusting to all the frequent change.

Pros

-They hire great people, and I loved most of my coworkers. -If you are in HQ up in NYC, they have a lot of great perks and great corporate culture -Free healthcare! -Great parental leave policy -Decent pay

Cons

-Terrible work life balance due to long hours (note, this is just for the marketing+design department, most other positions were still able to leave at a normal hour) -No local leadership in their "expansion markets" (newly launched offices outside of NYC, CA, and DC) -No room for growth (due to no leadership, and unclear career mapping outside of HQ) -Big promises made during the recruitment phase that aren't delivered on. Negotiate the highest starting salary you can, because once there, getting a raise or promotion is harder than it should be. -Unclear leadership structure outside of HQ -Unrealistic ratios for staff to client support. As they bring on more real estate agents, they don't scale their internal staff comparably. -If you were previously at an agency, and excited to go in house for better workload, this is not the job for you. You support 50-100 different real estate agents, all with different personal branding and goals, so its far worse than the 10 clients you had at the agency. -For a company that touts diversity and inclusion at HQ, this is not exhibited at our office.
