Pros

It's a very exciting time to be at Compass! Compass is rapidly growing and everyone is truly happy to be here and believes in the direction we're going. Robert is one of the most passionate and captivating speakers I've ever heard! Leadership and management are extremely transparent and approachable. Colleagues are smart, collaborative, hardworking, friendly, and passionate. Lots of opportunities for career growth and advancement. The culture is outstanding and their perks are great (too many to list but a few of my top favorites include: free lunch/snacks, 100% covered health care, gym reimbursement) "Our mission is to help everyone find their place in the world" doesn't only apply to agents and clients but also to their employees; this the first time in my life that I can honestly say that I look forward to coming into work everyday.

Cons

Compass is a very fast-paced environment (although, I don't think of this as a con) but with that said, fast-paced is not for everyone.

Pros

People are smart. Very much a “move fast and break things” culture which can be refreshing compared to bureaucracy-heavy corporate life. I don’t agree with their values (if they have any) but what they’re doing is unquestionably working - business outlook is strong.

Cons

Leadership will tell you there’s no ego or self-interest involved in their strategy - that is untrue. It’s an extremely heliocentric culture around the CEO. A lot of the work is based around what people they're guessing he’ll like, but there’s no alignment at the outset and something you worked on for weeks/months will be trashed after one look from him. Their mission is ostensibly about empowering agents but they are solving a problem that pretty much no one was complaining about before they started, and which just so happens to work highly in their favor in terms of market share. It’s just business but very disingenuous- don’t believe the hype that it’s altruistic somehow. Also the CEO loves to share his sob story about his single mother upbringing, but simultaneously enacts some of the most anti-parent policies you could think of.
