Pros

Pre-covid, this was a really chill place to work for.

Cons

Depending on your team, you could either have a great experience or a poor one. This is extremely inconsistent, pointing towards a poor company culture Benefits were all cut because of COVID. Makes sense. However, with rebounding financials and a recovering economy, the focus was put on rapid hiring, rather than reinstating benefits (partly why I decided to join in the first place). This is no longer a competitive company in terms of compensation. Leaders are being brought in from the most corporate of places, and you can tell that they sit atop their ivory tower, trying to inspire, when they have zero idea what it's like at the bottom of the totem pole. People may be afraid to speak up about that due to job security (also threatened), but unless leadership decides to actually listen to their employees or provide a platform to do so, I'm not very optimistic about the future.

Pros

Compass is a great company to work for: advanced technology, top-notch training and a superb management team. Provides a national and global perspective on the real estate market.

Cons

Requires training to use the advanced technology. Probably easier to join a team with other users already familiar with the technology.
