Pros

-good benefits -flexibility -innovative company/products -you can make your own path as long as you are improving the company, however don't expect to be readily promoted. You need to work for it. -the agents can be a lot but they are pretty great once you get to know them

Cons

-Management is a boy's club, but they are improving on that front with our new COO. -The culture is weird. There are a lot of smart and interesting people at Compass, but there is a huge disconnect between the different teams/departments. There needs to be more than a happy hour here and there to fix that. -The engineering team is talented, but Product needs to invest more time, energy, and resources into user research/UX. Our primary users work in the building and somehow we are still forcing half-baked products down their throats.

Pros

The culture by far is amazing and top of it's class. I've worked at two other brokerages and I have to admit it's unique. If you love what you do and do it with other's that love it too it just doesn't feel like work. Also the work environment is highly collaborative and enriching. You are working with other's that are just like you trying to strive at perfection and make fantastic things happen.

Cons

Being an IT and Brokerage company in one it is very IT driven and it moves at a very quick pace. Having in-house engineers working on our software feedback from staff and agents makes a real difference. Tweaks and changes are constant so you must keep up. We are the future of real estate now.

Pros

I have interviewed with a number of different companies during my search for the right environment/job, and I never been exposed to such a great team as Compass. It was truly a wonderful experience. The recruiter, Charlie, kept me updated throughout the process and was very responsive/proactive.

Cons

Overall it was a great experience, no cons to report.
