Hostile work enviroment

Real estate agent

Business Outlook

Pros

Free food and good leads

Cons

The MVMT team seemed amazing at first. The compass environment is attractive and the office spaces are really nice. However, after a few months, I started being treated very differently and I noticed the team leads starting to speak to me with aggressive behavior that was often abusive. I would recommend finding a different team at compass.

Pros

The pay used to be good.

Cons

This entire org. is toxic, the leaders definitely have favorites, and you're always in a lose-lose situation. There is very little room to grow or advance.

Pros

It WAS a great place to grow as a designer

Overhauled the design team and lost amazing leadership and what made the team what it was in the process. Took away almost all of the company benefits and perks as an employee.
