Pros
Plenty of work to do, listings issued without prospecting, good people that care about more than just the bottom line, good executive level that respects the opinions of agents.
Cons
Massive reduction in compensation from where the position started, to the point where the work done goes without appropriate compensation. Previously was an attitude of collaboration with cooperating brokers to get properties leased as quickly as possible with maximum effective rent, now an area where internal and cooperating brokers are in competition over a much smaller total compensation, with almost 90% of the compensation going to the broker that brings the tenant, leaving the internal agent with well below minimum wage for the amount of work going into getting that property leased.
