Pros

Top talent in almost every role. Great emphasis around company culture and treating people with respect and kindness. High bar for hiring and retaining people who live up to the values of the company. A smart business model proven to be working with all signs pointing toward continual growth. Forward-thinking and always looking for a better answer to a specific challenge. Never satisfied with the norm. A clear and powerful mission that the whole company is aligned behind with the feeling that we can all make an impact on. With everything going on, leadership still promotes a good work and life balance.

Cons

When companies move as fast as this one does they tend to not put the proper systems in place to help scale. This has historically been a bit of an issue but to be expected for the rapid growth that we have gone through. That being said there has been a focused and pro-active approach to improving this in the past 6 months.

Pros

- Some agents truly make all the effort worth it. They are caring, kind, hilarious, and incredibly generous. - Benefits are free and rather comprehensive. - Free in office snacks and beverages. - If not working in head office, highly autonomous working environment. - Holly Worthington: I list her as a pro because if you are serious about real estate, she is an absolute resource with a wealth of knowledge.

Cons

- Blatant favoritism based on position and location - Unfair disparity of salaries between identical positions (>10K). - Real estate agents are appeased, frequently meaning staff are strained. - Lack of transparency. - Very limited growth opportunity, but that doesn't mean you'll be given plenty of work outside of your role. - Some agents are truly awful, that sounds petty but it's absolutely true. HR doesn't cover contractors, so you're often at their mercy.
