Pros

They have good snacks in the kitchen and the office admins and agent teams are extremely nice!

Cons

Af first I was really excited by Compass. They offered great benefits, big pay and bonuses, and sold the dream...until it turned out to be the opposite of everything they described. The Strategic Growth Manager role is a recruiting role, there's no other way to say it. It's not an AE role. There is no room to grow or have any sense of creativity. It is a robotic role. The Strategic Growth Manager, Strategic Account Manager, Strategic Account Executive are all the same role. They squeeze every ounce out of you they can. You will work 70 hours per week, get emails that need to be answered at 7am and 11pm. Management does not have any training on how to manage people that aren't exactly like them. When I was doing good work and performing, it was never enough. My management picked favorites and was vocal about it to our entire team which was very unsettling and belittling. I spoke with teammates across the country and word on the street was I was on one of the "better teams" so it seems these are company wide issues. This is a churn and burn environment and they will spit you out when it's convenient for them. They will work every ounce out of you and have no problem replacing you and legally ensure you don't walk away with the commissions you deserve.

Pros

- lots of talented & friendly designers - design leadership and management is great - good place to learn and develop in your career with plenty of opportunity - pay is very good and so is work life balance - interesting industry and exciting mission

Cons

- there’s more red tape to deal with now but no change to speed expectations - the ceo worship can be creepy but it has mostly benefited the company and been harmless
