Pros

Amazing amount of support with Agent Operations, Marketing, Transaction Coordination, Product and all in a very collaborative environment. The technology, especially the apps, is fantastic. And the fact that the leadership and staff support aren't coming from former real estate professions brings a fresh perspective to the business and takes it to a higher level. They have a sincere interest in always improving.

Cons

I still put up my own open house signs. LOL.

Pros

There are too many pros to list. Working at Compass as an agent is truly amazing. I view company culture is one of the most important aspects of a job; Compass has created a culture of collaboration and inclusivity. Although we are a large office, it is easy to know and collaborate with all the agents, even across offices. This culture of collaboration and education carries across all levels. I feel that the all the leaders in the company care that we as agents succeed in helping our clients and provide us with the tools and support to do so.

Cons

As the company/offices grow quickly more opportunities to get to know incoming faces.
