Pros

Great culture, love the people from management to the AEM's and my fellow agents. Lots of learning opportunities - external coaching and internal training - allows you to be on top of your game. The culture really is unmatched for a large brokerage. I've never worked at another company where people wanted to network and connect so authentically.

Cons

There are multiple employees at management level who also coach externally. I do feel like this opens up conflicts as those who pay for coaching have at least an appearance of a leg up with upper management.

Pros

Used to have free healthcare, job was guaranteed full time permanent remote, decent pay, decent time off. The IPO flopped, consistent lawsuits, multiple waves of layoffs, so at least Compass won't be around for much longer. Not a whole lot of forward thinking here.

Cons

Chaotic with no guidance, direct managers are useless. Ghoulish upper management, went through several managers over a short period of time (they all either got fired with zero communication to the team, or quit with no notice). Total lack of consistency and care, robotic non-answers abound. Employees are consistently ignored or punished for bringing up relevant issues, and placated with hollow gestures like mental health seminars and hashtags. Full time hours are no longer guaranteed with soulless management leading the charge. There are some absolutely horrible, truly bad people working as regional managers/on the executive team, nasty people. Asinine tasks that keep changing every week for absolutely no reason; constantly tinkering with processes and adding more to everyone's plate is not innovation. Absolutely awful job, one of the worst places I've worked in a very long time.
