Pros

Establishing friendships with the other people in the building who made the same mistake as you....taking the job there.

Cons

Right out of training, you 'll get on a team and your ready to start working. From the moment you make eye contact with your teammates, you realize that they are extremely unhappy. Do you remember in Pinnochio where he thinks he's going to Pleasure Island but then realizes it's a trap and everyone's being turned into donkeys? You'll feel the EXACT same way after a week of being on the floor. You are only one thing to the owner and senior management: A warm body. I'm pretty sure they'd hire zombies to do the job if they actually existed. Unfortunately, you're worthless to them. I used to think I had a career there. I really did. I was wrong. When it comes to CoStar, the grass is greener on the other side.

Pros

I worked for Homes.com - Great first job out of college to learn a lot about sales and can make good money in the first 3 months - FIND PEOPLE THAT HAVE DONE THIS JOB AND HAVE LEFT AND FIGURE OUT WHY CUZ THEY'LL TELL YOU

Cons

I worked for Homes.com - You're doing 3 jobs in one and the pay does not reflect that - it is churn and burn. The average tenure here is 7 months - Management doesn't know what's going on 3/4 of the time. It is all up to the CEO and he's on his private jet more than 3/4 of the time
