Pros

There is some work life balance, pay is decent enough, used to be a great company, now it's horrible.

Cons

--The pay is nowhere near enough for what you go through on a weekly basis --Agents treat the staff like literal crap and upper management tells you to "deal with it" --Horrible management --Nepotism among the leadership teams --Retail Employment philosophy - seasonal hours, 25% seasonal pay cuts, etc. --Management has never worked in real estate and most come from Amazon --The TransOp department has leadership that will discriminate, with no accountability from HR/P&C --ABSOLUTELY ZERO GROWTH at a company I've been with for 5 years, while also having had almost 10 managers my first year and several the following year, and several more the year after that. --DATA, DATA, DATA - everything is based on data, they even track everything you do on your computers now via a security system by Banyan. --If you want to grow, make sure to brown-nose to the regional management teams, they hold all the real power for lower level employees --Low level managers are over worked and under appreciated

Pros

Modern offices and 6amers club, getting commissioned paid 1-3 weeks after transaction close date.

Cons

Sales Managers are apathetic, judgmental, have their favorites. Compass is awful in how they treat their employees and how they treat their agents. They say one thing but do another. They added several new fees this year. Your commission split is only good for 2 years and then they negotiate you at a lower level. Team leaders get away with murder and treating their agents like crap. In a dispute, they don't even ask for the agents side of the story- just the team leader and then back them up. There are some awful teams too. Collaborate without ego- only a few agents embody that. Even the splits are bad. With no incentives being offered to buy agents into the brand anymore, it's understandable why agents leave once they're done their contract. If you're an agent reading this, stop giving away so much commission and join a better brokerage that actually practices what they preach. Compass masterminds do not add much value for experienced agents.
