Thank you for providing this feedback. We appreciate the call-out for our excellent healthcare benefits and the Vitality program, which provides a wealth of resources and further incentivizes employee wellness. We are discouraged to read your other comments about clear expectations feeling like just a number. We recognize and appreciate the hard work put in by our people, and know that it is because of that hard work that CoStar Group has become the leading provider of commercial real estate information, analytics and online marketplaces, with products and services that are highly valued by professionals in this industry. We can't state enough how much we truly value the contributions of our employees who understand our vision and work day in and day out to bring that vision to life. In terms of clear expectations and direction, we find it is most helpful to have candid conversations with your manager to make sure both sides understand the expectations, timelines and deliverables being communicated. If there's anything else you would like us to know as it pertains to your experience at CoStar Group, please email HRdepartment@costar.com. Thank you for all you do on behalf of the company.

Pros

This company makes a strong first impression during the interview and training process. Unfortunately, my experience after onboarding was very different. Decision-making is highly centralized, leaving employees with very little autonomy. The company emphasizes ethics and integrity, but my experience did not consistently reflect those values. Favoritism also appeared to play a significant role in how employees were treated and how decisions were made. HR presents itself as a resource for employees, but concerns often end with, “It will be up to your manager.” That can be frustrating when the issue involves your manager or requires an impartial review. CoStar has developed a reputation for these issues, and from what I experienced, it wasn’t always this way. A few years ago, the company at least appeared to prioritize its employees. Today, that commitment feels diminished. The return-to-office expectations can also be unreasonable. During severe weather, employees are still expected to report to the office even when many other companies in the area allow employees to work remotely for safety. Finally, performance expectations and metrics are frequently changed, making goals increasingly difficult to achieve. Combined with inconsistent communication from leadership, it creates an environment where employees often feel unsupported and uncertain about expectations.

Cons

Good Health Benefits for families and singles Decent pay
