Pros

I have been working at Compass for nearly two years as a sales manager in the northern California region. I have watched as it has grown in the area in both agent count, employee count, and market share to levels not achieved by any brokerage in memory. As of today; SF area market share is 35% while many surrounding areas are approximately 20%. These are astounding metrics that lends itself to an exciting work atmosphere as well. What has inspired me personally from my first days here is the percentage of individuals who simply intrinsically want to better those around them. The desire of both staff and leadership to follow through on making the work atmosphere on where everyone feels a part of a mission together within the overarching concept of building a real estate platform that serves as a starting point for home buyers and sellers nationwide. This is a company where eight principles are put forward as the foundation for both staff and agents; those are to Dream Big, Move Fast, Learn From Reality, Be Solutions Driven, Obsess about Opportunity, Collaborate without Ego, Maximize your Strengths, and to Bounce back with Passion. I would venture to state that working within an atmosphere anchored on these principles is a place where you feel both inspired and proud of what you are a part of. Additionally, our leadership team, emphasized by Robert Reffkin, Maelle Gavat, and Rob Lehman are consistently striving to come up with ways to better what is already on the ground and new ways to innovate to succeed in within the mission statement. I highly recommend Compass for those looking for a company that is transforming the real estate industry.

Cons

I heard a quote early on here from leadership that a company in hyper-growth is comparable to a rocket ship lifting off and there will be some rattling. If you are not someone who likes new ideas and/or the need to learn from reality and recalibrate as needed then this would not register as a place to be.
