Cultish company that cares more about style than substance

Pros

Compass is a great place to be a real estate agent but a really poor place to be an employee. The best thing about it is that there are some smart people you get to work with — but most are gone pretty quickly when they realize it’s kind of a smoke and mirrors culture.

Cons

It feels like a cult and unless you’re punch drunk on the company kool-aid, it’s really hard to derive meaning from the work. The CEO surrounds himself with cheerleaders who care almost exclusively about how he sees them because nap judgements dictate who’s in the inner circle and there aren’t the kinds of objective success metrics a thriving business manages to.
