Pros

Decent benefits, nice HQ, some managers are decent

Cons

Lower managers hold on to their positions and are afraid of any minor change. Dealing with commissions is insane since there is no unified database for a-lots and everything is scrambled from multiple sources, often making the -recess extremely painful due to constant split mistakes. Getting to the upper management is a buzzard process. The -Erwin might be sitting two rows away from you, but it could take you two weeks of back and forth emails to find this person. Also, during the COVID they just started to cut down the workforce and splitting the remaining work to those who were still employed, making the workload excessively large (all while housing market was fine and kicking with no visible downward trends)

Shame on Compass

Pros

Flexibility, remote work, dedicated colleagues that performs at a high level everyday for the agents

Cons

Management has no backbone, whatever the executive level dreams up for the moment it’s implemented and the employees have to perform and is judged by their flawed metrics system. They just cut my former teams hours by 10 hours for 3 mos causing a reduction to salary.
