CoStar Group reviews

Environment/culture is non existent No morale or excitement to work here Micro management is perfected here. Had a manager force team to write a break down of a full work day into 15 min sections. Wanted to know what we were doing at all times. Never enough time to get everything you need to get done done. They just pile more and more on the people that actually decided to stay with company. High turnover. Not a place to work and retire. Lacks diversity. Give half hearted effort to have diversity program, it’s just for show I believe. Minority staff is overlooked and not known by name. Upper management treat this company like a country club, great for them not for us. Lack of upward mobility. CEO makes cringeworthy jokes during meetings that shows a clear lack of understanding for employees. Took away all incentives to work hard, no bonuses. Metrics are heavily used however are changed every 6 months, no consistency. Each team is operated differently depending who your manager is. So hope you have a half way decent one otherwise your time here could be trechorous. PTO time is not ideal unless you have already been working with company 3+ years. I have nothing but conversations with coworkers about how bad it is here, a way to bond I guess. Only reason I am still here is because of pandemic. 50% of employees have quit since then and the ones who stayed were not rewarded w bonuses or more time off or anything honestly. Just asked to do 2-3x the amount of work as before. Understaffed and under paid to do as much as we do. A typical 8 hour day includes making 50 + phone calls, researching sale comps, lease comps, construction events, managing listings, writing news articles, finding ownership, welcome calls, conducting training plus 2-3 projects per week. Unrealistic amount of work. So happy for everyone who has left and found happiness in their next employer. They are forcing employees to get vaccinated otherwise they threaten to fire them are they refuse to allow remote working even tho we have done it for the last 15 months. Production is the exact same. Discourages you to follow your personal or religious beliefs saying “Costar is not a place for unvaccinated people”. Big powerful company that steps on its own people as long as Andy and upper management’s bug dollars keep rolling in.

Extreme favoritism primarily with upper Mideast employees. Rewards Tesla's in bias manner. Most if not All of the employees who received Tesla's this year, had to agree to leave a positive review on Glassdoor. Money was placed in balloons during a work event, and employees were unsafely competing to burst balloons, several people suffered minor injuries. The legal team berates clients whom they suspect of sharing data to the point clients feel like criminals. reviews on Glassdoor is often discussed, but emails and concerns sent to higher ups are rarely responded. You often have uncomfortable conversations if you feel your concern should be addressed higher.
